Independent

No
What price did you pay?
£0
When did you buy the car?
May 2013

It's got to be German.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
So much better than expected for a smaller car than I have had for a very long time. It feels so much more solid than an Audi A4/A3.
What's it like to park?
Piece of cake. Rev gear takes a bit of getting used to but after a few times no problem at all.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Full leather is a must in my opinion in any car.
