Yes, but a Brit would still be measuring miles per gallon, albeit imperial gallons.

Not sure why you went for the automatic over the six speed manual? The manual is lighter, gets better fuel economy, and you actually, you know, drive it.

Understand the attraction of Xenon headlights, and the tech gizmos, but were they enough of a draw to give up a clutch?

Nice car regardless. Congratulations. I like the colour too. Our son in law drives an earlier one, same body style, not quite as refined an interior from the photos. It is a popular car in Canada, as you say. We like our hatchbacks.
