Driving it
What's it like to drive?
This is an amazing vehicle to drive. I recently drove to Scotland on a Sunday and back on the Monday. It just covered the distance with no fuss. It likes the motorway and gives you the ability to keep up with and pass other traffic when required, without making any fuss. I am 6' 3" and have all the room I need without compromising the rear passengers.
What's it like to park?
It has front & rear parking sensors and is very easy to manoeuvre it any suitable parking space.
