still in love

I dont have a lot of cars to compare, but comparing to my first car i owed, which was a 2011 fiat punto dualogic, this is just the best car i ever had lol . I always loved how it looks, i love the turbo on it. Gearbox is million miles away from the fiat. It is a heavy car, so it is a bit harder for me to manouvre , I am still getting used to the weight but it serves me perfectly, 500+ miles roadtrip feels nothing in this car. Thank god for the parking sensors cause the rear window is very small, but the boot is huge.
Only 2 points i dont like: the huge doors, I always park out of the way so I dont smash it into other cars, when opening it and the mpg. I get around 34 or 35 best driving in town and motorway mixed. In town driving its even worse. So it is a very thirsty car, it does not have the stop start system. But i wanted speed and triple digit horsepowers and a more exciting drive from the Fiat and I got just that. So I am happy.
