    4CAR RATING:

    Assets
    Brilliant handling and steering, strong performance, great engine, race-car looks, well-engineered, should retain its value, low(ish) running costs

    Drawbacks
    A bit noisy, gearshift could be better, not much else

    Verdict
    One of the best driver's cars around. We'd have one.
