Non-barge refinement

[Shape Shifter]

Okay, so it's easy for a V12 Merc or a V8 Lexus to be super smooth but what more proletarian fare have you experienced that impressed you with its ride quality and overall refinement? The smaller the better.

I must admit the Peugeot 407 Coupe impressed me.

Mk4 Fiesta 1.25, drove it 350 miles down the Cornwall at 85, and it was fine, comfy and not to loud atall .

My dads old Citreon XM. Drove it to Barcelona.

Must say I'm pretty impressed with my Impreza on the motorway for what it is. Nice seats, doesn't rev too high, not too loud maybe even a nice tone at m'way speed and shove when you need it. Might be a little different if it was the equivalent JDM model though (harder sprung, closer ratios ect)

Ford Puma 1.7.

Good chassis based on a Fiesta.
Keep the standard wheels and springs tho.
125BHP so quiet nippy.
Good MPG.

Is that the Yamaha engine in the Puma?
