Summary
What does this car say about you?
Sensible, comfortable, fairly stylish.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Compliments on the looks with black paint and large alloys. Some people have also noticed a lack of rear legroom, especially behind me (I'm not that tall, but have very long legs).
Would you buy this car again and why?
Probably.
What are you likely to buy next?
Something that won't be on finance so I can go ahead with a house purchase ... after that, maybe something similar.

A bit bland with limited steering feedback (I also regularly drive a Focus) but very safe and plenty of grip, though probably a bit too slow.

Easy with reasonable visibility for a new car, and standard parking sensors.
