Looks beautiful, a real head-turner, very sexy, fun to drive, some electrical problems detract from overall pleasure.

A great little car with good performance, looks and handling. Cheap to buy and run although being a modern car a little difficult to self maintain, being mid engined, access to the engine department is also restricted. Low resale values make them exceptional value for money.
