Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's no racing car, but it can be chucked about when empty. Other cars don't expect it to go round corners - which it does.
What's it like to park?
Narrower than a C-Max and so more room to open the doors. Standard rear parking sensors on my "3" are OK and you get a crude distance display on the stereo.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Touch wood, nothing so far
What's most practical about your car?
Everything - but especially the flexibility of space in the back and how easy it is to move / remove the seats.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Standard stereo is good.
