Drove up from Pembrokeshire Sunday and enjoying superb skiing in Nevis Rangel:
36.2 mpg (1.6 petrol)
Pirelli m&s tyres
able to (just) carry 3 pairs of skis inside by folding d/s rear seat and angling skis between front seats (dislike roofracks)
wish rear seats folded properly
steering a little vague in centre and this is tiring on motorway
seats not as comfortable as my marea or punto on long journey but not bad
road conditions ok so not had to test (yet) roadholding/traction
like high driving position
do not find engine noisy but could do with a higher 5th gear
have seen one bronze sedici (might have been sx4) in Fort William
