Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Like a dream. Corners as well as a car half its size, soaks up every bump perfectly and cruises like a Frenchman. Excellent.

Tricky due to its size and lack of parking sensors, but good visibility and light steering help.

The rear light cluster fell inside the boot a few times, which the dealer fixed.
What's most practical about your car?
Cavernous boot and acres of room inside.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Cruise control and stereo were easy to use. Considering its the entry level model it was very well specced.
