Driving it

It's very smooth, and gear changes are very clean. There is a little road noise, but this isnt noticeable. It is a very sturdy car, and grips incredibly well.

Reverse parking sensors make bay parking a dream! The size, and the lightness of the steering at slower speeds, makes parking very easy.

It has very light steering, which makes driving and manoeuvring incredibly easy.

Cruise Control which is fitted as standard! Helps keep a high MPG.
