Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
This is the worse car I have ever driven! My wife takes out the £750 Nissan Micra we bought for our son rather than the "lurch". The EGS is dreadful, the brakes cause whiplash. Despite what Parkers states my car has no suspension and the saetbelt often traps you in the seat when trying to lean forward. Yet the dealer tells you the car is fine!
What's most practical about your car?
If you only travel in a straight line at 70 this is the car for you. Avoid corners, junctions hills at slow speed, traffic lights, manouvers at low speed etc etc etc.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
I can think of any thing about this car thats puts a smile on my face.
