Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Good fun, direct fluid steering no body roll,and being used to a Saxo VTR, the ride is acceptable to. The engine is a gem too far quicker than the figures suggest with a huge amount of pull.
What's it like to park?
Quite easy it has light steering and it easy to see out of, only the sloping bonnet can make it tricky.

Yes refused to go into reverse gear and the windscreen demister wasn't even connected up, although sent straight in for the repair and came back within 2 days.
What's most practical about your car?
Being 6ft 3 and having previously owned a Saxo VTR, i really appreciate the extra headroom.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The auxillary port for the mp3, it great keeps everyone entertained.
