Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong.Tyres seem to be difficult to get hold of,apparently the size fitted is unique to the VRS. I have been waiting aweek for a pair.
What's most practical about your car?
Interior space is good for what people call a supermini.I think the ride is good and the quality of the switchgear and controls is excellent.
