Pulling away from traffic lights you are yards in front of most road users within the first 50 yards - and you are still inside the speed limit.

Living with it
Image
Petrol heads seemed to be impressed.
Comfort
This relates to vehicle temperature control. Without an a/c temperature in the car is very warm. The normal air system seems pretty poor compared with some other companies.

Had extra third part security added to ensure different levels of vehicle immobility.
