I've never had a bit of trouble with mine, they're a cruiser! Very comfortable cars with a nice bit of poke when needed. Not as fast as a starlet but suits me down to the ground with the baby, you could fit five bodies in the boot they're that big, loads of buggy space lol.
Mine is a Sir-T with a four speed automatic box but also has a tiptronic mode which is good fun. 180bhp compared to the euro r's 220bhp.
