Driving it
What's it like to drive?
The reviews regards this cars and its performance are very untrue, although may be depending what you like. Acceleration when pulling away and whilst crusing is very very very disappointing, feels a long way off 180 bhp, feels much slower than a mondeo 2.0 tdci. Sporty drive I have heard mentioned many times no idea what people are talking about- yes sporty compared to a P plate corsa.
What's it like to park?
No issues with parking - unsure why this question is asked - we all passed are driving tests did'nt we.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Within one week and 475 miles of ownership car broke down on the motorway car still at dealer over two weeks on-many faults with these cars regards the lambda sensor all are on back order for a number of weeks. You even get a roller skate for a replacement when yours is in under warranty repair.
What's most practical about your car?
The size of car is very good inside the cabin and boot space also.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Cd system and blue tooth in the short time I have managed to use it have worked well.
