    What's it like to drive?

    To be fair, it's done everything that I've asked of it, but I really haven't gelled with it. It isn't hugely economical either, no better than the 1.8 Mondeo that it replaced. It drones a bit on the motorway too, but I guess that it's not too bad for shorter trips.

    What's it like to park?

    Nice and easy.
