Image of the Evo brand and the driving experience.

What was the dealer like?

Very helpful and friendly. Wasn't pushy but was able to help me with all aspects of the sale.

What's it like to drive?

Not as nice to drive in town as my old hot hatch but it isn't unpleasant to drive in urban areas. The biggest problem is probarbly the turning circle, it's not great.

What's it like to park?

With the SST gearbox it isn't the easiest thing to park, you have to over rev it a little with it having an auto clutch but it isn't bad to park in terms of size and visbility.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nope.

What's most practical about your car?

Interior space within the car. You can comfortably fit four adults in it.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The touch screen Rockford Fosgate sterio system with music hard drive.
