  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Excelent. Doesnt feel as big as it is to drive, really smooth, pulls well. A bit noisy on first startup, but once warm is fine. Steering is weighty and precise, its sticks into corners and feels very stable, giving great confidence. Great veiw of the road ahead, although not as high up as you may think it is.

    What's it like to park?

    Really easy. Great visibilty all round. Good turning circle. A breeze to get into even the tightest spots.
