Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Good torque meaning good overtaking and mid range power, If your going to fling it around corners make sure you have your window up otherwise you will fall out with the huge roll in the suspension, it has grip but it finds it difficult to put it down with a slight bit of dampness on the road. Fantastic motorway cruiser but i was a bit puzzled at the fact that i am only achieveing 42 mpg with average driving yet the the TDI 150 does 52 mpg, Can someone explain this?
What's it like to park?
Absolutely fine
