  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Holds the road and handles very well much better than previous model. Drives like more like a car. The previous model felt like a van. Also it does not feel huge on the road the width is good - when I drove an S Max I felt that I needed to constantly think about its width. The 1.8 150 bhp is much faster than the S Max 2.0TDCi too. MPG could be better the air con really impacts the mpg. But its still better than the comparable powered Petrol models.

    What's it like to park?

    Very easy with the front and rear parking sensor option.

    Fitted Rear roof DVD comes with twin Infra Red headphones perfect for kids on long journeys. The 18inch Alloys are absolutely superb too in my opinion some of the best looking alloys on any car.
