Cheers. It goes pretty well. Certainly not as quick as the Golf, but still quick enough to show up most things you'll come across on the road. Not put the handling to the test so far (boring commuting instead!) but it certainly feels good so far.

Thanks mate. The Golf was a great car but just a bit lifeless somehow. More of a fast cruiser.

Funny you should say that, it was my trip to the 'ring in 2015 that made me want one! As you say, they seem to be among the fastest things there which is pretty incredible for a hatchback. I'm going out there over Easter but, as I've not had it long and the rear tyres are poo, I think I'll just be a spectator this time.
