Driving it
What's it like to drive?
love driving it, smooth and relaxed. on long distances feels like you have been on a five minute drive
What's it like to park?
As mine is along wheelbase it was a bit unerving at first, but now used to it and the sensors work well, do have to watch what space you put it in sometimes though and doors are wide.
