  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    I really enjoy driving it as it has minimal body roll even on 16 inch alloys. The steering is light and precise also. The suspension setup is ideal for our potholed riddled roads. The 1.5 diesel is economical and has good bit of poke for a 1.5.

    What's it like to park?

    It's ok but the rear end sticks out abit but you do get used to it.

  • Living with it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    So far Electric passenger has failed, abs sensor and the odd electrical gremlin which seems to be common.

    What's most practical about your car?

    The boot is a fair size and passengers never complain about the back. Also there are loads of storage cubbys in the floor, glovebox, centre console and door cards.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    Keyless entry, Stop/Start button, on board computer and automatic headlights. I love the panoramic roof when open but do find it annoying especially when in long journeys such as travelling on a long or bumpy road as it tends to whistle and rattle quite abit.
