    Never bought a part in 2 years, so hard to comment!

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Nippy enough. Does all you ask, but 0-60 in 8 secs it ain't!

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Suffers from tilt at some corners, but a great work horse.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I live in Scotland and after 10 days buried in snow, this baby started first time no problem. Utterly reliable.

    Not something I worry about, but a guy could drive the saloon without looking like a girly!

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    For a small engine, 70mph is a surprisingly effortless cruise. No sore botty or back at long distance. Boot is ENORMOUS!
