So after all that what is it like to drive? well, it's fab the engine is  very quite sometimes you wonder if you have turned it on, it uses £45 of fuel every month which means i get about 410 miles every month. 

Unlike the last cars i have had, you don't feel all the road inperfections you are just gliding along the road #

It has an eco setting its like start stop took me a few weeks to descover it tho.

if you know how to drive in the snow (like me) its great stays soild to the ground and when it does start to slide (exteam SNOW) the car flashes with a warning. 

The interior looks awsome and stays clean for weeks as it's glossy  

Anyway, that's all from me see you all in my next blog

Please send me questions I am doing a Q&A 

Bye :) see you next time
