Part of the appeal for this car is the fact it doesn't have power steering quite honestly. My current car is an FF layout without power steering, and THAT is a pig when parking. Comparing it to say a MR car without power steering I've driven (MR2), which was far more enjoyable and easier to park.

Nice. That's fun watching the drive through London. I would suggest the background music a bit lower so that I could hear the noise it makes. I also wonder how it is in practical use such as maintenance costs? How is it rain? On your point about its external looks probably just what I need to compare i to the Cayman but the Cayman's interior makes the comparison hard again. The exhaust noise seems need fixing, whether is it sound dampening or larger exhaust, I don't know. Regarding tram lines, I believe it is because of the thinner width tires which is why it follows it.

I have a Lotus Elise and I'm guessing the issues will be similar to them as the construction is very similar. There shouldn't be any major problems. But maybe a few little problems. The main things to look for is wear/damage on the suspension and chassis from track use etc (most used ones will have seen track time). If any part of the chassis is damaged it cannot be repaired. Wishbones will probably be rusty already but as long as some rust blocker is applied once a year it shouldn't be a real issue. It will probably be full of stone chips too which is normal.
