Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Handles fantastically - great round corners. It does feel fidgety on anything but an A road though. Feels great at speed - but starts to feel very light at 140mph+.
What's it like to park?
I'm informed by my wife it is difficult as the body width is hard to judge and the alloys are very exposed.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Tracking permanently goes as the tyres are very low profile and the suspension is stiff. Also, the xenon headlights had a judder on them - very irritating when driving.
What's most practical about your car?
Four-wheel drive.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Digital television and rear parking camera.
