  • On the road

    Driving

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Hampered heavily by automatic transmission, ride is comfortable but sloppy and unenthusiastic in performance driving.

    Performance

    1 out of 5 1.0

    17.3 seconds 0-60 is taking the mickey. Though it pulls strongly in 1st and second, it needs to be floored on hills and you need to use the low range settings often.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Good, but the on-board computer cocks up frequently.

    Rapidly becoming known as a massive turn-around, you can get a high spec VW for much less of the price.

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good, sturdy and a good trim, but a little plane Jane.
