Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Effortless and with a Turbine feel to the Engine. It cruises effortlessly on motorways. The country roads when they get narrow can be a bit of a task, but once you get used to the width it is just easy to drive.
What's it like to park?
Parallel Parking a sinch. It is when you come to park in the rediculously narrow parking bays in the UK supermarkets that you realise the width of the doors. This means that you have to have an end bay so that you can get out of the car or that someone does not park so you can't get in.

All of them.
