Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Drives like a dream on cruise control such an effortless. But when you want it to come alive it respond incredibly well , either on the flappy paddles or sequential.
What's it like to park?
Very easy to park good full lock. And with the aid of pairing sensors hard parallel parks are a thing of the past.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The radiator went on the first day of picking the car up. Then the EPC(electronic pedal control) lights flashes on intermently. The gearbox is dim witted to say the least and the fuel economy is useless no where near the combined 45 more like 25 if I was lucky.
What's most practical about your car?
Couldn't find anything practical about the car the boot couldn't even hold a set of golf clubs let alone the trolley. I had a zetec s fiesta before this car and that swallowed a set of clubs and trolley with ease.
