Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Handling- fantastic. Comfort- Very roomy and I think ride is really good too. The best bit is that gearbox its nothing short of outstanding with its 3 modes Auto, SportsAuto and 6 speed push button. In 6speed mode the gearchanges are so smooth and far better then much high class cars I have tried.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Everything within weeks of purchase suspension, brakes, seatbelts, sensors and the gearbox went. Total time off road 5 months with a cost of over £3000. HOWEVER the dealer paid for the whole lot and gave me a car to use while my was off road and I didn't have to throw a paddy to get it all done. since then its been trouble free. So did I get a good deal or not.
What's most practical about your car?
Nothing
