Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Much better than professional reviewers would admit. It is soft at the start but when driven harder it sits on the road surprisingly very well. And it is economic as well. In heavy city traffic 42mpg and 60 on open road.
What's it like to park?
Very good. The steering has city mode which makes parking pleasure.

Fully adjustable steering wheel, Amazing reliability and economy.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Dashboard computer, fully adjustable stearing.
