  • Driving it

    2 out of 5 2.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Ordinary bought as a replacement for a Fiat Ulysse, the only problem with the Fiat being the fuel consumption. The really silly handbrake/oddments tray/armrest and gear lever combination between the seats is a REAL problem. Everything getting in everything else's way.

    Difficult, due to the odd shaped inner front door panels, the car never seems to be pointing where toy think when you alight
