A mate of mine has one, has had a lot of trouble in 3 years of ownership, 2 clutches at about a grand a piece, also quite a lot of engine trouble, he tells me he had spent 5k a year on it in repairs, and it don't do many miles, and when he took me out in it I wasn't that impressed. It has put me off ever having one, but he did tell me the cars with the rover based engine are a lot more reliable and cheaper to maintain if that helps.
