Very easy, everything to hand just a little short of power to overtake sometimes.

No probs as long as you can find a big enough space these days, not easy.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Only thing gone wrong is after being stuck in a six-foot snowdrift it started creaking when going over speed bumps. Seemingly the snow had washed all the oil or grease off the joints under the car so had to have everything underneath oiled/greased. Now no probs again.
What's most practical about your car?
Easy to climb into and get out of. Good all-round view while driving.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
No accessories.
