    I really like your calm and collected car reviews! I watch quite a lot of car reviews on youtube, spend a lot of time digesting information about cars. It's just refreshing to see someone who is not so emotionally biased, and does not look like a teenager reviewer who is excited and happy about every little detail of a car. A more down to earth and mature approach is welcome. Just wish you did a lot more youtube reviews. Lovely camera angles btw...

    Sport drive mode is simply the throttle pedal sensitivity. Agree sport mode makes it harder to modulate the throttle pedal, I use normal.

    This car has DCC which means the suspension gets firmer as well in sports mode.

    Hello dear Barrie. Great review. I currently own Audi a4 and Ford endeavour 2.2 160hp in India. This car is coming to India in may 2020 .I was planning to sell both my cars and buy Octavia 245 and Audi q5 45 tfsi. Is it correct decision. Or should I do it differently. I would like to own one sedan and one SUV. Both powerful petrol automatics .kindly suggest. Currently getting good discounts on q5 than on x4 30i.

    @@BarrieCrampton I agree the go pro exaggerate the view and distance probably. As you sad in your video in the link you got bad habits early on when you started to drive. Your car you drive how you like. If you make videos about driving you will get responses like that. The reason you need more elbow bend when your hand at 9 and 3 o'clock. It is purely for safety reasons.

    Lovely car. I have been thinking about getting one of these, although I would stick with a manual. One of the best features is the heated windscreen. Have got that on my 2017 Golf and it is just brilliant. Much better than Ford with those annoying tiny wires.
