So had my Kamiq now for over 4 months now.

Likes

fantastic value for money on PCH deal
good performance with the 115ps engine.
50mpg+ economy
very easy to drive, light steering, light clutch.
great space front back and boot.
Nice big clear central screen
very quiet and refined.


very versatile comfy car that I enjoy driving

Dislikes

stupid lane departure system that you have to keep switching off every time you drive car. Annoying when overtaking Even kicks in without lines with things like road repairs where it "sees" the tar line - scary
daft speedometer with no 30, 50 or 70 - what clown thought of that?
Link with Apple phone is pretty hit or miss, not reliable at all

overall though I do love the car, just a pity that it is all short runs at present and want to see what it is like on longer journeys.

when you consider all you get elsewhere for the money, it is a fantastic package

cheers

Totally agree about the Speedo markings ( although you can set the centre of the right Speedo to digital numbers). You would think that would be in the settingss
I don't like the lane departure warning either, but it's Euro wide law now, so they have to have it set that it must come on with every start.
I wouldn't be surprised if a work around is done by someone clever soon via the electrics or a code.
I had problems with the phone link at first ( but with Android), and now have no problems at all. Fast to connect ( via cable) stable, and no hiccups to date.

As said, a bloomin good motor for the price!
Thanks for the input.

Rags.
