Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    When you consider an alternative - there is none! Anniversary 16v is rare (only 150 in UK).

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Better to spend a little extra to get FSH and lower miles if possible.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Mine has Koni Sports suspension and remains sure footed, if a little harsh around town.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Not quite the low-down grunt of my old Mk2 8v, but really flies at higher revs.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Nothing to report.
