well, so far it is thumbs up.
The clutch is an on/off switch the ride is harsh, but both due to mods to make it go i guess.

All in all... loving it. Being a pomme and coming here in late teens I have been brought up in a hot hatch culture. This is not a hatch i know, but very close. That whole small nimble thing.
After all, getting a line sideways, you notice its a big car real quick
