Very disappointed as the rear subframe has prematurely rusted out, creating a very expensive and intensive repair!Nov 17, 2022

Performance is good from the supercharged engine. Build is brilliant with no squeaks or rattles.# Excellent ride quality for a sports car. Good looking car with great road presence. only 30 mpg on mixed town / rural driving. Roof down it's brilliant with little buffeting. only poor radio reception lets it down, which they're trying to fix under warranty.Jun 15, 2009
