"It's a very big car, but it's also a very fun car."
CAR magazine · ▶ 5:45"the performance of the suspension is heavily compromised by the weight... in a corner if there's a bump... It heaves and it can't manage its weight."
Throttle House · ▶ 5:06"you can have an infinite amount of fun just getting on the power a little bit too early everywhere."

positive · CAR magazine · ▶ 5:45“The handling is superb. I don't care if it's 7 tons. I don't care if it's 20 tons. As long as I don't feel it and I'm driving it and I'm loving it, that's all that matters.”

positive · Sam CarLegion · ▶ 12:11“I'm always sitting here wishing that the road was another two or three feet wider... I'm just left feeling a little bit cold and confused as to how it's done what it's done.”

positive · CAR magazine · ▶ 3:14“I need a car that is fast, but also also a great daily. I've got family. I've got stuff they need to carry around. I would say you go for this.”
positive · Sam CarLegion · ▶ 15:48“it's just difficult to park, it's difficult to navigate down a typical UK road, especially one that has potholes down either side.”
