Thinking of getting one and just wanted to get the views of people who have them? Are you glad you got it? Would you of got something else instead? Will be buying a 2 year old one with around 20k on it.

Thanks for your help!

Great cars, good compromise between comfort and performance. I had two red editions - no issues whatsoever. Having recently stepped into an ST I do miss the MPG and comfort, I regularly got 50+mpg commuting to and from work on the motorway and surrounding main roads. Apparently the MPG takes a dive if commuting around town. 

Love mine.

Awesome car. Comfortable, pretty nippy and looks great. 

For my first car I can't complain

Great to see the positive views! Would love an st but just couldn't justify the ridiculous insurance and more expensive running costs so I think this is a great compromise! Not sure whether black or red! Would also like red brake calipers, does anyone know what the best paint to do this is?

Get the red edition mate. I think the black looks like a toy car. 

I'd either get the black edition and make all the red a different colour, or just get the red edition and leave it as it is.

lol talk about complicating things tom 

I've had a red edition for a year now, its a great little car. I was tied between it and an ST but I'm glad I got it in the end, best compromise between performance and economy

Agreed, on the black version I'm not a fan of the Red on it (maybe get it wrapped)
