we have the parking sensors fitted front and rear so wife has no problem.

Have you had any problems with the car?

very much so; since we bought the vehicle we have encountered problems with power loss, it was taken back into the garage but they said they cant find anything wrong. The other day the wife drove through a small flood on the road and the vehicle stalled and would not restart. This was caused by water being drawn up the air intake pipe which is situated very low causing hydroloc of the engine, which will probably result in a new engine being fitted, very expensive. So stay clear of floods on the roads.

What's most practical about your car?

comfortable to drive, good mpg.
