Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Engine performance is terrible. Dont get a small high powered engine in a large car, especially with the auto box. The car accelerated ok once on the move, but from a standing start the pick up is terrible. You have to time when you pull out into traffic because, when you put your foot down there is a few seconds delay until the engine picks up power, then you get a big surge of power when the turbo kicks in, then no power again as the revs raise.
What's it like to park?
Ok, with the parking sensors.
-

Car worked without any problems.
What's most practical about your car?
Decent rear space.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Distronic cruise control works well and makes motorway driving easier.
