Cool

Had a Y reg 330CI Sport for 60,000 miles.

Excellent car with very special handling (as opposed to grip of which a Scooby has more).

Driven hard when desired, driven gently when needed. Over 60,000 average mileage was just over 30 mpg, to get below 20 in town you would have to be driving like an idiot or stationary all day.

Very, very good car and would keep up with the Scoob convoys, even in the wet

Terrible in the snow - even with the traction control on.

Biggest issue is covering the rear Sport wheels with rubber - very expensive tyre size. Cost three times as much as the rear tyres for my 993, also with 18 in wheels.

Highly recommended and point to point no slower than the 993 and only a tad slower than classic Sti.
