Simply the best car i have owned to date and pretty cheap to run all things considered

Brilliant handling and very good performance. Ride quality and practicality very good for a 2 seater sports car. Quality of fixtures and fittings first class, although interior is functional rather than inspiring.

Very safe, great handling and ample performance. My wife & i find it good on a touring holiday. Good boot space for a 2 seat sports car. Road tax at £400+ is too high for a low milage user.

A surprisingly reliable car with near 911 performance but without the premium purchase price, and if weighing up the performance per £ it could almost be considered a bargain!
