Stew Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 I remember I had one as a courtesy car quite a few years ago. It wasn't bad to drive. I pushed the parking button at about 80 to see if it made a difference. It did. I nearly crashed. Don't do it. It is ace for parking though! I will not be printing this off to show my girlfriend as I will not be buying her a car for christmas! Quote
