Reliability
Only the airbag stopped working. Replaced under extended warrenty. Car is 95M, still under warranty (and worth it!!)
Image
Looks better with colour coding and alloys.
Comfort
Seats are large enough and fairly supportive, but not so great on long runs due to shortish backs. Pretty good leg room, even for a 3-door.
