Fastback 2.0 TSI 190 SE DSG 5dr

I really want to like this car but don't

Pro's ... Extremely roomy, very economical, quick (but), attracts admirers.
Cons.... DSG not quite right. You've a choice between slow and laggy or quick but frantic and coa*** sounding. I personally find that the seats are not comfortable at all if you've got to drive a distance; rock hard = numb bum. Driving position not right for me (6ft 1inch) - steering wheel won't come close enough so when the seat is set right the wheel is semi straight arm.
Infotainment system takes ages to fire up and the sat nav sometimes goes crazy and takes you in completely the wrong direction.
And finally (a stupid one this) the steering wheel rim is thin and shaped a bit like a rugby ball facing end towards you in cross section so I find it irritating to hold for long periods.
