Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Absolute dream to drive on the streets, nippy and agile. On the motorway, its horrendous, it can sit at 3k-4k revs and just make it awful to drive long distances. The car is really missing that 6th gear.
What's it like to park?
Fairly easy, got a decent turning circle.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Battery has drained itself twice now, I've had all my electrics die after a long road trip at night. other than that its been perfect.
What's most practical about your car?
Really comfy if you're sat in the front of the car, loads of room. In the back however... you better have small legs.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
I have a de-cat exhaust on my car so it sounds amazing. other than that the fact it has Bluetooth and has the body kit which makes it look awesome.
