Theres loads of threads on here about these Chris, try a search.

On the whole they're blindingly good cars, the only things that let them down in my opinion are the handling and the electrics, wiper motors, window regulators, door solnoids are all popular and none are cheap.

Handling can be vastly improved with bigger wheels/good tyres though and the other stuff your just gonna have to bite the bullet if/when they break.

Can be tuned quite well aswell.
