Uncomfortable but not disastrously so! I took delivery of a new VW some years ago and drove it around for the best part of a week thinking that the ride was a bit hard - checked the tyre pressures and they were still at 'storage' values of 60psi (to stop the sidewalls sagging during long-term storage). So much for the dealer's pre-delivery inspection...
