Only little 1.5 Sport, but has to be the most fun little front drive car i've driven, did southampton to oxford via b and declassified roads in the dark and rain last night and it was great fun.

Only £4200 at 25 months old : ) bargin a years general Manufactures warantee left and 4 years on engine and gear box. To think i test drove basic ford Ka 1's at 13 months old for the same price.

Is it just me, or does the back end of those cars look like a classic Impreza Wagon? Remarkable similarity...

I always liked them

cheers guys, yes lotus adjusted suspension, so far i really like it, only issues are front locks up to easily and also it spins the wheels to easily. I can't decide if this is due to rubbish tyres or just being used to the MR2 where traction isn't an issue and the rear brakes do alot of the work. Sure as hell can't fault it for the price though
