Summary
What does this car say about you?
I'm different - there are very few of these - in particular this model on the road. Looks impressive as it's as big as a passatt and looks similar. Plus it's the model that's used on Top Gear as their reasonably priced car.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
They love it, big and roomy, takes two lanky teenagers in the back easily. They love the leather interior too.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes definately, because it's been reliable, easy to drive and looks different to the tons of others in this sector.
What are you likely to buy next?
either this or the new Chevrolet Epica model that's due this year (2007) - or a two seater!

Franchise
Did you buy this car new?
No

November 2005
Did you get a good deal and why?
I think so, I had negative equity in the car I was px-ing and got a good finance deal.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Wanted to stick with Chevrolet but a bigger, sleeker version than the Kalos I was driving at the time.
What was the dealer like?
Very helpful, found the car I was after, although didn't know a great deal about the model I wanted. (they still don't)

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Nice comfy relaxing drive, little noisy at higher speeds, often feel like I need a sixth gear! I live in the country but work in the city, copes well with both.
What's it like to park?
Easy, guess that depends on the skill of the driver too!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nope
What's most practical about your car?
The boot, it's huge!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
lots of little hidden away drawers, etc. In fact my Sat Nav wasn't stolen when the car was broken into as it was hidden in one of the more secret spaces!
