Love it, very jealous! Comfort for passengers is great.

March 2012

Based on Audi A4 and also because of VAT-free deal.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Lovely, especially on the motorway as it's so smooth and has enough torque. It does roll a bit on open country roads but I didn't expect brilliant cornering from such a long/heavy car.
What's it like to park?
Easy with the electric wing mirrors and all-round sensors, although a diagram on the screen showing where the close points are would help.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
A few minor things such as loose door handles and a buzzing sounds inside the car but nothing major.
What's most practical about your car?
Boot space, leather seats, Bluetooth - most of it is practical!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Probably the SatNav although I don't have any complaints about any part of the car - the Xenon headlights are also excellent.
