Driving it

Handles beautifully, may be a little harsh for some. Will cruise at M/way speeds happily all day. Tend to use 5th gear for cruising - treat as 4 speed almost on normal roads

Easy to steer with PAS, but has huge turning circle - 3 point turns easily become 5 point turns

Huge boot, comfortable, relatively quick.
