Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Its a competent drive nothing exciting but nothing bad. Apart from the thick front pilers obscure my view at junctions. Fuel consumption is not bad if driven carefully. round town 25mpg on motorway at 60mph 56mpg compared to 30mpg at 70 (ish)mph. Of course 60 is so dam boring but cuts costs big time.
What's it like to park?
nice and easy
