The interior looks great & will certainly win potential buyers over. Maybe this is all part of the marketing to detract from the fact its not "the ultimate driving machine" in its class. Some quotes from the Autocar review:

“The other failing with this particular model was the gearshift. While the stick is sportingly short and short-throw, its action across the gate is surprisingly notchy. The detent between first and reverse – which are next to each other – was also awkward and it needed a very firm shove to get it into reverse gear.”

"lacks the fluidity of the best front-drive rivals."
