Not as sharp as a Focus, but not as stodgy as a Golf

Slow off the mark, a lot of torque for a 1.5 so good in gear and on the motorway.

Living with it
Reliability
Exhaust bolt came out, fixed under warranty, seat adjuster wire came off, fixed under warranty. Mechanically fine, the engines by Nissan so should run and run.
Image
It does not look like all the other Euro boxes.
Comfort
Front seats are very comfortable, rears the same, but a little upright and needs more legroom in the back.
