1.4 Boosterjet S Allgrip Auto 5dr SUV

Just about nearly very good!

1500 miles so far and np problems.
Comfort of seats is very good but ride over bad roads is a bit rough.
40 mpg overall based on mixed driving - 10% m/way, 60% cross country, 2 % off road and the rest urban.
Steering is very precise.
Gearbox works well with this engine and is very nearly pretty good when driven in "sport", however "auto" is quite acceptable except a bit of a flat spot at 1500rpm - that's when you use the paddles and off it goes!
The boot area has a false floor so the removable floor now resides in the garage.
Adaptive cruise control is quite an experience if you haven't had it before!
I bought the centre armrest as an option - well worth while

Cons - manual dipping rear mirror - in this day and age?
Sat Nav - Not as flexible as a Tom Tom, cannot buy safety alerts., quite a small map area.
You have to buy mats!
The cargo net doesn't work with the false floor in place and you don't need it with the floor removed - you need to see this to understand!
Servicing costs will be high - service interval is 9000 miles!
