Driving it
What's it like to drive?
By far the best small AWD car I test drove (and believe me I drove them all!) - very car-like and good on the bit of off-road that I do
What's it like to park?
No problem at all as it's smaller than it looks. Don't have parking sensors, but they are useful.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The brake sensor kept sticking and needed two attempts to fix it, but otherwise everything's fine so far.
What's most practical about your car?
It can pull my caravan over muddy fields and I managed to get around during the snowy weather with no problems whatsoever
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The AWD is great as it only comes on when you actually need it, therefore keeping the fuel consumption and emissions sensible for a heavy car.
