I have test driven this super mini on a few occasions and after each time my desire to own one grows even further.
It's a drivers dream. It's powerful 16 valve 1.6 L engine will leave many a car for dead.
It scores so highly in all reviews - rated the second best handling car in the world by Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson - beaten only by a Ferrari. Drive one and you see why.
The suspension is perfect - soft enough so that long journeys / motorway driving is very comfy - hard enough so that you can throw this baby into corners at speed and feel its grip to the road. There's virtually no body roll - the nack end will slide out ever so slightly to add an extra bit of fun to the drive.
The only let down of this car is it's dated interior.
The level of equipment is only average too.
However, once behind the wheel, the last thing you think about is the interior - and super fun driving is all that fills your mind.
If only my insurance company would trust me !
