Worthy but Uninvolving

A very good car but...it "muffles" your feel for the road; the temperature and fan controls are the least intuitive I've ever come across and are dangerously distracting to operate; the SatNav image is worse than my 4 year old Garmin and too low down and the sound from the no-DAB radio is poor. As an end of run model, I got a great deal but I often wish I'd paid a little more for a second-hand Golf as I had originally intended,
