Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Good fun on country roads, plenty of power and gives you confidence around corners. Prone to a hint of lift off oversteer in damp conditions if you push it, but perfectly manageable. The suspension is hard but not uncomfortable. 6th gear makes it economical (realistically 48MPG) and quiet enough for motorway journeys. The seats are extremely good, everyone who has been it has commented on them.
What's it like to park?
It's tiny - easy!
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Has been flawless so far, touch wood!
What's most practical about your car?
Good headroom for people in the back and a reasonable sized boot.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Ford Sync and Heated Seats.
