    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Good high position, responsive engine. Not too hot on fast corners but then again it's no sports car. Body role is not too excesive but it does understeer quite badly when pushed.

    What's it like to park?

    With the sensors fitted its a breeze. Not sure what it would be like without them, I'm guessing it would be a little more tricky
