That I dont like "normal" cars, lol.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
High seating position, great on motorways. I have driven to Cornwall from Lancashire and had no problems or tiredness. Cruises very easily even when fully loaded with 4 adults and luggage.
What's it like to park?
Poor turning circle makes it difficult to park in tight car parks.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Annoying rattle from watts linkage but is due to wear and tear.
What's most practical about your car?
Large tailgate. I suffer from back problems which my previous car made worse (Jaguar S type ) so returned to the PT as the seats are excellent.
