Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Terrific. Precise handling with acceptable ride. Enough poke to make it interesting and the N series engine is very flexible. Wish there was less wind noise from the hood. Why couldn't they have sorted out a wash/wipe system?
What's it like to park?
I'd rather park my Discovery. I hate parking the thing.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No
What's most practical about your car?
Not sure practicality comes into it, but the boot space is surprisingly usable.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Don't ever think of driving one with the top down without a Windstop - I added mine and it makes top down motoring much more enjoyable, as my lady wife will testify.......
