Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Excellent. Really comfortable car to drive especially on long journeys but with the SRi upgraded suspension it was also quite rewarding to drive. The steering however does lack a little feel but it's not an F1 car and I'm no Ayrton Senna.
What's it like to park?
The parking sensors did make it a little easier but despite the cars size I found it very easy to manoeuvre.

No, never missed a beat.
What's most practical about your car?
Doors open nice and wide so access to the cabin is excellent and has a very large boot.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Parking sensors.
