Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

Had one for a week as a try out car, it had the 5spd automated transmission,.
In one it's very dangerous the gearbox needs to be taken out of production, it lurches and changes up way too early, there is no sports button, you could make a cup of tea in the time it takes to change gear.
You have to double your distance when going on roundabout as it lurches forward then changes gear in its own time, many were called, but few were chosen.
It's a fantastic little car, built well, well equipped, the infotainment was very responsive but settings are a bit complicated as someone put it on km rather than miles and could not find a way to change it back.
Very comfortable.
But there's no excuse for that gearbox, I thought that we got shot of these 5Spd AMT years ago with the smart cars and the Vauxhall Corsa step tronic, as it reminds me of.....honestly a worse version of the vauxhall step tronic gearbox.
Car is spoiled by this... hyundai get this sorted, as parkers says themselves...the AMT is dangerous and atrocious.
