Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's quick enough through town traffic and fun to drive (I find it very entertaining). Motorways slow it down on every gradient, but it will get you there. The handling is fun, the rear springing is too soft, so the back end rolls on bends, but it steers well enough. You can sling it thorough corners and get round quite well once you're used to it.
What's it like to park?
It's so small you can park anywhere.

What's most practical about your car?
It's small and nippy. Great on fuel and tax.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
It has no gadgets.
