In their own words

After vowing to not having another french car, my wife fell in love with this very well equiped car. Takes some getting used to fiddly controls/buttons but all work very well once you know whats what. HUD is quite useful addition. Comfort is really good, driving is on the firm side with the 18 inch alloys not helping but not as bad as some reviews say. The colour rear camera is a MUST as rear view is dire for parking, large pillars don't aid front either. Keyless go, electric memory massage seats, decent audio with USB AND bluetooth and good SatNav, duel zone climate control, pan roof (which doesnt actually open!?) all make this feel quite premium. We moved from a reasonable spec Mondeo (for the size) with 3 kids, 2 in childrens seats and a great lump of a teenager and the DS5 is up there with the ford sizewise. However it feels worlds apart being a more pleaseant place to be. The Mondeo handles better and gives more feel, however im not buying a HOT hatch, its a large safe family hatch we want! I have a Merc CLK and the DS5 feels as special.
