Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Yes..bad smell from catalytic converter. Was told this happens periodically as carbon deposits are burned at very high temperatures and to be fair it hasn't happened for a long time (touch wood) but yesterday the drive belt shredded which basically made the car up - drivable. .is booked in for repair today so hopefully will be covered by warranty? Also door seal rubbers coming loose.
What's most practical about your car?
Good all round vision with great driving position. Decent economy as I average around 46mpg with mostly town driving.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Cruise control if driving long distance.
