Drives really well, nice and torquey with it being the 2.0 diesel.
Run flats seem a bit harsh if you hit a pothole but other than that very smooth.

I think when the time comes to replace them I may try non run flats, but will need to sort out some emergency puncture fix.

As I type this I'm wondering if there are locking wheel nuts on the car as I haven't seen a locking nut remover anywhere.

Averaged 57 mpg on the 130 mile final leg of the run home yesterday so very happy with that.

Open the boot, on the right hand side behind the rear tail lamp there is an access panel. Pop that off and you'll see it.

I've got another daft question !
To adjust the rear seats back and forward I'm pulling up on the lever under the seat ( either side) but seats do not move . Am I missing a lock mechanism or are the seats just jammed ?
