  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Very smooth, the smoothest engine/gearbox i have driven and i have had BMW's legendary 3.0 straight six diesel auto previously! Handles well, and very comfortable.

    What's it like to park?

    I have the front and rear sensors that come with the 'match' spec so very easy, but the flat back and squat front end would make it easy to park regardless.

  • Living with it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    Nothing to date.

    What's most practical about your car?

    When you fold the rear split seats down, it has a wide boot opening which means you can get a hell of a lot of stuff in it! Also its still compact for parking, getting around town.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    DSG Gearbox is one in a million, Superb!
