Bought this as a cheap commuter for a year, but ended up loving it. The suspension is basic and there's no power beyond 5000rpm, but it's a proper old school drive-it-like-you-stole-it car. The gearbox isn't the slickest shifter, but the ratios are perfectly set up to keep the turbo spooled up. The stock tyres are dangerously bad but theres plenty of options for good ones. I planned to tune it, but after the first month i knew there was no point. It doesn't need any more power - it's perfectly balanced as it is. Amazing little car that held it's value completely over my 14mth ownership. And it cost me bugger all in petrol - super economical. Brilliant back to basics fun. One of my all time favourites.
