General Comments

Have owned this car for 3 years - the longest I've ever kept a car, as it is sooo good! The engine is a peach. Hit the V-Tech and hear it sing.
The reliability has been second to none - it has never let me down and nothing has gone wrong (so far!). The gearbox is ultra sharp and so short, you really enjoy changing gear. Although the screen mists up for no apparent reason, and 3 point turns turn into 5 point (or even 7!), I would have no hesitation in recommending this car to anyone. Even your granny could drive it! Can't wait for the newest shape Type R offering to be released.
