    What's it like to drive?

    An absolute pleasure to drive anywhere. When I'm not driving the car I'm thinking about driving it. People say the M sport models are quite bumpy due to the more rigid sports suspension but I don't find this to be the case.

    Easy to park due to the responsive and accurate steering. Also comes with rear parking sensors so you know how close you are to the car/wall behind you.
