An absolute dream. The novelty has not worn off. Can be driven sedately or you can get those horses out!

Condenser in air conditioning needs replacing as do the blend doors on the climate control. Total outlay will be approx. £1.3k (mostly labour!) but is not urgent.

Automatic hand brake - auto engages & disengages. Can be done manually too if required.

Automatic (electric) handbrake. Love it!
