Finally taken the plunge!

Although I have been very happy with my Yeti it is now approaching 3yrs old and will be due an MOT and the first service I will have to pay for. This coupled with the fact that it will soon need at least 2 new tyres has led to me ordering a Karoq.
Have gone for a 1.0 SE Nav Plus in Business Grey (same colour as my Yeti). Was a little doubtful that the small engine would be powerful enough but a lengthy test drive with 4 adults on board convinced me that it was more than sufficient for my needs - very rarely more than 2 adults in car. Only other concern is that this model does not have varioflex seats but as I never made full use of them in the Yeti I hope to manage with “normal” seats.
It seems to have a lot more toys than the Yeti so will need to do a bit of swotting up on the manual before it arrives.
Hope to take delivery in 4 - 5 weeks and will get back to you with first impressions once I have done a few miles.
