Thanks for the detailed reply Stephen, though knowing you I had anticipated that.
![]() I suspect our "sales demonstrator" wasn't as familiar with the car operation and settings as he should have been. For example on the display I could see the sensors picking up the roadside etc. but for whatever reason, even though I think I accidentally turned it on at one point, he thought autopilot/adaptive cruise wouldn't work. It felt very natural to drive, and no doubt I'd get used to the big screen interface in due course. The passenger experience was a little disappointing overall, and no the test car didn't have the dual sunroof - I was banging my head on the roof lining a fair bit when sitting in the back. As for:So did we now I think about it; we were there for a week quite recently, staying in Beaminster.
