Summary
What does this car say about you?
It says I am not one of the flock but a car enthusist and I choose my car to match my own preferences and requirements.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Many people are are very surprised at the finish and quality of the car and were not aware that it was being manufactured. I am often stopped and asked by complete strangers for details about it.

Yes definately. Perhaps, but not necessary the diesel one next time. I get 35mpg around town and over 40mpg on longer journeys.
What are you likely to buy next?

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Effortless to drive, comfortable over rough roads yet tremendous handling and roadholding. Very quiet, often find myself driving much faster than I think. More than adequate power at all times. With the traction control of the TSE it is exceptionally good in snow.
What's it like to park?
A big car but with the reversing camera and front/back parking sensors it is fairly easy.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
So many gadgets difficult to select just one but bluetooth, reversing camera, auto wiper, auto lights, electric seats, and satnav are used every time it is driven.
