Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Great to drive. Fantastic handling round corners and good ride. Non-PAS steering too heavy at low speeds though, but manageable if you're strong. Surprisingly quick, especially at 30mph and above. Put your foot down and you'll be impressed!
What's it like to park?
Small body, heavy steering. It's ok overall.
