Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very smooth engine - lots of low and mid range torque. Averages about 38.5 MPG so far. Wind and tyre noise quite high for this class of car on rough surfaces/at speed.
What's it like to park?
With sensors and a camera it's no problem. Without them it would be tricky - long sloping bonnet, a long wheelbase and it's a wide car.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Only had it a few weeks but, so far, faultless.
What's most practical about your car?
Huge boot, spacious rear legroom. Front rear sensors and camera aid parking.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The MMI interface is great with satnav, bluetooth, ipod connectivity and integrated reversing camera.
