    Good value for money consdiering what you get for your money.

    Expensive to run and buy

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Safe and secure, front end grip is very good. The only downside is that all of the power is high up the rev range, and doesn't relly make itself felt until you are doing silly speeds

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    For a car this size 140bhp isn't really enough, I think that the 170bhp version would be a better buy.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Squeaking from the front nearside wheel. Sorted by the dealer without any problems and under warranty.
