Driving it
What's it like to drive?
The estate holds the road better then the Vrs I had. The 1.9 TDI is a great engine. MPG is amazing. I filled the car with diesel to the rim for a motorway trip and the needle only moved after 100 miles.
What's it like to park?
With the help from the parking sensors it is easy.

Cruise control,parking sensors and heated front seats.
