Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very good - reasonable performance on A-road and Motorway, comfortable cruiser with enough on tap to do a good overtake. Quiet and refined. Averaging high 40 MPG - 62.8 claimed is a long way off!
What's it like to park?
Glad I have parking sensors. Visibility is poor.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing major, just a few niggles I hope to get fixed at first service. Drivers seat base feels loose. Couple of electrical gremlins.
What's most practical about your car?
Lots of cubby holes, and places to store junk. Cup holders are a good size.

AFL - Adaptive Forward Lighting and Heated Leather Seats.
