Living with it
Reliability
The catalytic converter cracked in half at 12,000 miles - garage fixed it with no question. Somehow doesn't feel as solid as it should be - a few squeaks and rattles already.
Image
Looks smart and different, best of the MPV's?
Comfort
Driving position feels high and pedals a little awkwardly positioned. Seat height adjustment is a waste - couldn't imagine anyone using anything but the lowest setting

Security
Two lock settings on the key card - one push for normal, two for deadlock
