Overall rating

4.0 out of 5 stars

Likes:

  • Searing, yet manageable performance
  • Intensity of response to inputs is defining characteristic
  • R pack is still good for road use
  • Still a bargain even at this price

Gripes:

  • Practical considerations need to be left behind
  • Traffic and poor quality roads make for tiring progress
  • Ear plugs a sensible requirement for longer journeys
  • Not a car for the nervous or inexperienced
