i have a Copen which has the 659 turbo engine,it is cracking engine mine is at standard and the spec says 67 bhp but it pushes out 83 bhp.it keeps up with alot of bigger cars but where it good is the twisties.servicing for my car is every 3000 but one is oil change(£45)and next is major(160-240.Parts there are ompanies on the net sell parts and dealers are very good.tyres for my car cost £70 but very good tyres and i have not had anything go wrong with it so far.tuning there are loads of parts by HKS and other top tuners.it likes to beed the engine it redlines to 8500 but the turbo is very responsive and quite good fuel usage i get 38-45 mpg on moterway and hard driving i get 25-30.if it is like the copen it will be great car and pretty nippy with 0-60 8.5 seconds go for test drive
