    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Spectacularly underrated. Direct steering with good feel, very high grip levels, but also a hoot around town, where it can be flung into parking spaces easily!

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Mid-range especially good.

    It gets better once you have one.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very comfortable, but you tend to sit 'on' the seats rather than 'in' them - can make the ride seem less good than it really is.
