Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Superb, handles like a dream. Very comfy over hard surfaces even with the run-flats fitted. Previous car was Audi S-Line so any other suspension set-up is better. Steering a little to stiff if anything.
What's it like to park?
Brilliant, opted for Parking Sensors so it's much easier. Rear view mirror very small unfortunalty.
