Driving it

Very smooth, quiet and peppy for a diesel, only negative point is that mpg goes down from 45-46 on normal roads to 38 on motorways if not driven at reasonable speeds.
What's it like to park?
Takes time to get used to, would benefit if Honda start giving parking sensors as a standard.

No, wish interiors would be more bright inside of the dull black.
What's most practical about your car?
Seating for 6, I can carry long loads

Folding mirrors essential fo a wide car, also cruise control is very handy on motorways, I just set it to the desired speed and relax!
