Driving it
What's it like to drive?
pulls off suprisingly quick, accelerates well in higher gears. Struggles in lower revs. Great fun to drive.
What's it like to park?
Super-light electric steering makes it a doddle to park. Very very very poor rear visibility makes reverse maneouvres a nightmare, would highly recommend a set of rear parking sensors.
