“However, the idea of more cabin room, spec'ing a car again etc still lingers.”

It is easier to get in and out of but once inside it feels smaller than a trad Plus 4. There is no room for anything. The extra width of the body is lost by all the extra padding on the doors. The glovebox is tiny and there are no elasticated door pockets. No central tunnel to put things on now as this is all wood and handbrake.

“It's a fantastic car yet has it's flaw. One very odd one that sticks out was the constant running of the radiator fans which came on in full force within mins of driving. It's all I could hear which took away from the experience.”

I have done over 2000 miles in my Plus Four and I think I heard the radiator fan come on once. Even then I had to really listen for it.
