Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Excellent, fast & powerful at any speed. Cruises very well in auto 'D' but has loads of pull & grunt when in 'S' and dynamic mode.
What's it like to park?
The car is very big so always need a large space however once you are used to the size its ok. Multi-story car parks can be a challenge going up and down the ramps...
