There's a place near-ish me that offers them for hire for a day. They're every bit as fun as you'd expect. Exhausting, but fun

    No power-steering in those puppies.

    Chris Harris did a review years ago on the old Drive YouTube channel, and the phrase that stuck in my mind is "oversteer wherever you want it".

    I've only ever driven them in a sim. I've never driven a real one - I'm not even sure if I'd fit in one.

    They're actually not bad for space! I'm about 1.9m / 6'3", and while I'm not that heavily-built I'm definitely not unusually slim. It wasn't roomy for sure, but I fit just fine. The lack of a roof did at least mean that headroom wasn't a concern

    I did once have to back out of a purchase of a second gen Toyota MR2 because I was too tall. That was a deeply disappointing day
