Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's great, uses a fair bit of petrol if you really put your foot down but im just learning to drive in "eco mode" to save some petrol. It's fun to drive, its lowered a little so you can trust it round corners, the seats are comfy. Also with it being my first automatic car, its different but i love the drive, id never go back to manual. the gear changes are smooth, really clever.
What's it like to park?
Great to park as small, also with rear parking sensors.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Oil consumption is terrible, apparantly its a fault with these cars ive heard. I guess it would use abit more than a normal car, but its a pain checking it all the time just incase.
What's most practical about your car?
Its small, nippy, easy to park in small spaces.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Heated seats, as well as the pattern on the seats is just awesome. Also rear parking sensors are a god send!
