We like
Mid-engined layout does deliver a car that handles and steers better
Performance is both plentiful and characterful
There is performance value here too, and surprising versatility
We don't like
It's big and heavy for a mid-engined two-seater - and it shows on the road
The derivative styling lacks a bit of sophistication
The driving position could be better, especially if you are tall
