Driving it
What's it like to drive?
A bit of turbo lag around town, but very smooth, with plenty of overtaking punch for country roads. Handling not quite as good as expected. Velour seats so comfortable and incredibly hard-wearing - like new after 115,000 miles!
What's it like to park?
Large car so not easy, but plenty of glass helps.
