  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Driving position is good, but visibility a bit restricted due to width of bars either side of the front windscreen

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Not bad once up to speed and on the flat, but a bit sluggish on the hills.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Ongoing problem with the radio which has been replaced 4 times in 8 months. Fault causes radio to drain battery and is supposed to be a known fault with Radio model, but I am not convinced. Also problems with suspension and vibration.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Plenty of leg room all round.

  • Security and Service

    Service

    2 out of 5 2.0

    They seem reluctant to fix the underplaying problem with the radio for which they blame manufacture, and keep fobbing me off with replacements or the same 'faulty' model
