So, we picked it up on Friday, drove it 400km south to the in laws, and back home on Monday. It’s fucking brilliant!
The ride is utterly astonishing. It just glides. Far better than I remember my dad’s BX GTi in the 80s. And yet you can corner at 90kmh and it’s totally flat. It doesn’t feel sporty at all, it just goes round bends at speeds it has no right to, in a manner which can only be described as uncanny.
The aircon is good, the stereo is very decent, the boot space is huge, and the seats are very comfortable. The windows are laminated and double glazed for quietness, and it has a speed limiter which is handy in the villages.
I really like this car so far.
