I still like them but we sold ours last year. We had it from 2.5 years old, it was looked after, not exactly money no object but tried to keep on top of stuff. We got rid as the stuff it needed at 10 years old to keep it long term and be happy for the Mrs to use daily was too much against the value. It needed a new rack, cam belt, IMRC sorting plus other small stuff. We'd just spent over a grand a year before and weren't prepared to keep dropping money on it.

Real world living with one, when you've just got to drive it normally and can't exploit its strong points:
Very juicy, sub 25mpg with traffic.
Like all performance cars needs at least a pair of tyres every year.
Chokes up with repeated short journeys
Have you seen how hard it is to get the oil filter - especially on a driveway?!?

It never let us down and was a great car, just needed a spanking round the local bypass now and again.
