Loved
-Pininfarina lines
-'Red bits'
-Rarity-outside of the club that is!- Still gets people looking as you fly by!
-Shear performance for such little money!

Improvements
Nothing much really-
1. Flick wipe.
2. The car could take bigger wheels even lower profile tyres- then you could also fit bigger brakes.

Comment
Had the car from new for nearly 13 years and driven each of the 94,000 miles. Tuned to sensible maximum for non-forged engine and standard looking from outside. Still love the car after all this time. Crushing performance now but if funds were available would take it up to 500+ bhp- if the "boss" would let me!- that's a "no" then!!
