Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Well mine has 18 Inch alloys and is very bumpy. You would know if you drove over a cigarette paper! However it hugs the road beautifully, has a great turning circle and accelerates wonderfully.

A doddle.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing at all. Flew through it's MOT.
What's most practical about your car?
It's big enough to be a family car (with a decent boot size) but small enough to zoom around town in!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Well it doesn't really have any but I love the ECU, tells you average speed, MPG etc, dead handy. Also heated wing mirrors - awesome!
