    The engine sounds horrible 🙁

    We were quite surprised considering the general sophistication of the car, but if you put your foot down it sounds like a half broken diesel for some reason.

    We did test drive the FHEV, but i think in terms of petrol engine there’s no difference between the two. Will definitely be a best seller if it comes to the scheme though, great car for many – sadly not for us, my wife couldn’t get comfortable in the rather firm seats (the back was fine, the bum area gave problems). That was in the GT Line S, not sure if lower spec cars come with “less sporty” seats maybe.

    Really impressed with the screens though in terms of size and resolution – not so much with the glaring issue. As in, the issue being glaring. Like, sun reflecting off the screen making them hard to see in direct sunlight, but maybe that’s just me.
