Fun in an old fashioned way

I'm just coming to the end of a 3 year lease on this 86hp version - here's a quick review.

+ve
Great handling, and fun, lightweight b-road performance which feels' old fashioned as there's lot of feel in the steering and also lots of feel of the road and indeed sound of the road and of the engine.
Totally reliable for me
Decent fuel economy if driven slowly
Perfect driving position and controls
decent air-con

-ve
quite noisy
not great seats
economy drops sharply if driven fast and/or hard
servicing costs not cheap for such a simple car
