Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Always feels glued to the road; get on a B road and it behaves like a sports car half its size plus if you cruise at sensible speeds turns in an average of 40mpg. Serene over bumpy roads. Was even good in the snow which was unexpected. Just love it...
What's it like to park?
Easy with sensors front and rear

Rush with hush.... Eats up the miles in supreme comfort
