Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's quite nice. Excellent visibility, nice leather seats, 2 sunroofs, climate control. Could do with a bit more low down power & seems a bit under geared: A higher final drive or a sixth gear would be perfect. Feels a bit wallowy but will corner extremely well if pushed.
What's it like to park?
Very good visibility, but the front is longer than you think!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Had to have a set of front discs & pads for the last MOT, but they were very worn when I bought it.
What's most practical about your car?
Seating: The back seats are individually removable, so I use four seats - massive space & legroom front & back.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Four wheel drive: It is exceptionally competent in snow - very easy to drive & undramatic.
