Barry Seton, the "Herald" test driver said initially the car seemed to have been designed for the city driver.
The steering was particularly light, even when edging the car into the kerb at rolling pace.
...
Barry's opinion changed, and so did mine for that matter, when we took the car for a run to our country test area.
While the car shaped up as a good city run-about, it was a superb tourer. It seem unruffled to cruise at a sustained speed of around 80 m.p.h. where the roads permitted.
