A very fun little car, i test drove one at the motor show and within the tight confines of the demo area i was keeping pace with the MGs and scoobys (an MG got a bit pissed with me stuck to his **** at one stage) the 660cc turbo and low center of gravity make it very go kart like to drive, it would be a little cramped with the roof up for anyone over 5'10" and could be a pain to drive for an exceedingly long distance.

I'm nearly 100% sure they are all 660cc turbos.
I'm 6ft 1 and drove with the roof on OK but only just.
If you do get one, get the one with the leather interior, it is very nice.
Roof works very well and once on the drive is quiet. But roof off is best.
Handles nicely, brakes are good, has air con etc. and it'll be reliable.

The interior is very nice. They also look a great deal better in the flesh and actually look pretty cool. Being a Daihatsu it will be over engineered and have a mad engine capable of far more power.
Not driven one yet but sure it will be fun, OK probably not the fastest or best handling car but capable.

Girl at work has one. Oil and service are very frequent and of course no luggage with the roof down.
It looks tiny, even parked next to a small car like a 106 Great fun though if you want something a little different from your motoring and hers has been 100% reliable in the 6 months she's owned it.
