Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Whether towing a horse box across a field or a trip up to the lakes or battling through the snow and ice the car drives beautifully. It is powerful and quiet a great driving position and a wonderful gearbox.
What's it like to park?
Very easy to park, I can it into spaces that I cant get my wife's ford focus into.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
I've had a few issues, the steering rack failed but was replaced under warranty, the clutch failed and was not replaced under warranty which was very disappointing. There are a few niggles now a the rear tailgate has corrosion on it despite being repaired by the dealership twice already.
What's most practical about your car?
Everything! It is the best all round car I have ever owned and I would buy another one tomorrow.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
