Mine is the fastback then!

Other than sailing through its MOT, it has been reliable as anything and I can't fault it for anything except fuel economy. Including a motorway run I average 27mpg in the beast, for the size of car its impressive but extremely difficult to stomach when I do 1200 miles a month!

This is the 800 coupe

Well the front needs bringing down a little bit but otherwise its not so bad, really smooth and absorbs bumps nicely. Have found the brakes are a bit crap when at motorway speeds and the economy isn't amazing but doing the same route as the metro, the last tank got 26mpg compared to the metro 28mpg due to the traffic etc.

Overall, very impressed as it just sailed through the MOT with no advisories and keep getting people coming over and asking about the car and commenting about how good the condition is.


The economy isn't amazing? What were you expecting from a massive 2.0 turbo'd car?

Well nothing amazing to update, it got a wash as I was fed up of getting my suit dirty at work and today clocked 100k miles.
