Low mileage for age and price.

What was the dealer like?

Great until I took the car off forecourt. They said they could get any defects sorted at my local Evans Halshaw but Edinburgh wouldn't accept responsibility for defects when asked. Left a nasty taste.

What's it like to drive?

Fabulous to handle. Bit bumpy on bad roads. Economy improving from 49 mpg to 52 mpg (calculated, not on board computer figures which are optimistic by a couple of mpg) as engine gets looser.

What's it like to park?

Parking sensors front and rear make parking easy, even though they are a little slow to respond. (In other words, take your time!).

Have you had any problems with the car?

No, so far trouble free.

What's most practical about your car?

The boot is bigger and more accessible than it appears.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Has all the toys but the handling is the best feature.
