What does it cost?
For This version comes stuffed with luxury kit like automatic lights and wipers, dual-zone climate control, rear parking sensors and powered rear windows. Despite that, it only costs a few hundred quid more than our favourite version.
Against There's a reason – you have to put up with a weedy engine that feels out of its depth outside the city limits. That really doesn't suit the Exclusive's all-singing-all-dancing feel.
What Car? says
Masses of kit for similar money to our favourite, but we'd spend the cash on a pokier engine. Weedy performance means this version is best left alone.
