Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very good low rev pull and very fast, extremely comfortable on motorway and fun responsive steering on B roads. Adaptive cruise control is brilliant too.
What's it like to park?
A bit of a disaster! Not a very tight turning circle and the rear pillars are thick and the bonnet is very long. Should have got the Parktronic System.
