Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Awesome! Yes the old model is good, infact Very good! However this has got something extra! Lots extra! It looks a little more grown up, like you will be taken a bit more seriously and when you press the pedal hard you get an almighty roar from the i-VTECH which is noticably loader than the older car and sounds magical in tunnels!
What's it like to park?
just getting used to it, although not as easy as the old car!
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Had to change a fuse which was blown by an attachment to the cigar lighter!
What's most practical about your car?
Great space in the boot! Comfortable for me, even though I am 6ft 5', the boot has a hatch where you can pop your shopping so that when you are driving home it doesn't fly all over the place!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
either the cruise control, folding mirrors or the multi function steering wheel!
