But extremely dull, where as the Lexus has something going for it...
Been driven in one these on a road trip. The ride is quite firm, road noise is good, very well built and can get high 40s MPG on a run. Stereo's not that good though.
the one I'm looking at has the 13 speaker Mark Levinson speaker upgrade.Been driven in one these on a road trip. The ride is quite firm, road noise is good, very well built and can get high 40s MPG on a run. Stereo's not that good though.
Besides, the wife's friend has the Auris hybrid

Supple ride, space, economy

We bought a well spec'd F Sport a month ago to fulfil similar duties, having never been in or driven one - it's used for commuting around London.
Yes, it has a firm ride. It also corners well, staying remarkably flat at speed. It had a fantastic drivetrain which is well suited to start stop driving and is very refined in terms of NVH.
Get a well spec'd one and it's like a mini luxury car, we have started using it for local runs instead in preference to our CLK and E Class ..
I liked it so much I bought another one and sold the E Class.Yes, it has a firm ride. It also corners well, staying remarkably flat at speed. It had a fantastic drivetrain which is well suited to start stop driving and is very refined in terms of NVH.

Harsh ride due to the batteries in the back needing extra support. Small boot due to batteries in the back.
No sportiness at all. Handling compromised due to batteries in the back.
Pretty gutless, economy on the motorway appalling on anything above 65, the weedy 1.8 petrol drinks like a fish.
Decent enough inside & the F Sport looks nice in metallic blue.
If you don't care about driving & only drive in town then fair enough.
Did I mention batteries in the back?
