Bought this for the wife over the weekend, not a bad little car.
   Bought it brand new, so its still pretty tight, dual clutch auto will take some getting used to (particularly on take off) but overall a pretty good little piece of kit for just over 23 grand. I will say, it drives real nice. Power steering is crazy light at low speeds but firms up nice at highway speeds. Handles our substandard roads very nicely. Will look at finding a wrecked Sport one day and robbing its seats - however these ones aren't bad either, I just found the chairs in the Sport that much better. I won't comment on the power - as my car has near 300rwkw most cars feel underwhelming - but i will say it reaches 80k/100k very aptly and once at those speeds you feel like you're going so slow. As said above, it feels very tight still so will be interesting to see how its going after a few kays under its belt.

Is this a 2litre petrol in what looks like Daisy Hill?
How is it on overtaking say 90-100km/hr? |

It is a 2L Petrol, yes.
Overtaking is fine. No problems.

Nice colour,....looks like it is the same as my 2009 LV LX which is Tango. Will probably change mine for a new car next year,...looking forward to seeing the new Pulsar when it arrives in Oz.
