A good car but some aspects disappointing

The good: well designed interior and comfortable specious and light. Good driving position and visibility and generally handles well on narrow twisty west country roads, around town and motorways. Summer range has been around 280 miles. On the whole, good safety features. Only three visits to the dealership, reset tyre pressure warning, front sensor replacement and electrical fault with the air conditioning.

The not so good: quite a lot of road noise especially on rural roads and quite bumpy over pot holes. The minimum air conditioning setting is 17C. So on warm sunny days with heat gain through the windscreen the AC is ineffective. The heating is very temperamental even with the heat pump. In winter, I can get warm air in a few minutes or drive for 15 minutes before any heat. Often having managed to get heat it suddenly puts out cool air. Finally, the winter range is low, around 190 to 200 miles.
