Reliability
Absolutely awful. Also had 4 seperate coil failures (one of them went twice) in the first 8 months. The usual lame excuses and I'm still waiting for the only remaining original coil to go as well.
Image
Still looks good.
Comfort
Average, but still to find a driving position where the headrests support the neck.

Security
Nobody has tried to steal it yet.

Very poor. Very good impressions of an Ostrich when a problem occurs.
