Driving it
What's it like to drive?
The 2.6 engine gives this car a really surprising turn of speed and entertains on the motorway by how quickly it accelerates. Manual gearbox is great, I don't understand why people criticise it, I prefer it to the automatic version I had before.
What's it like to park?
Easy as all 4 corners visible due to chunky shape.
