Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
As someone with mobility problems this car (called Betty) is genuinely the best car for me when getting in/out. I'm 5ft 6in tall so it isn’t low that I have to drop into the seat nor too high that I have climb in or drop off the seat when getting out, the only thing I would change is to have electric seating at least for the driver, manual lift & slide seats are a bit of a nuisance. The 3rd row seats are easy to lift if needs be, though mine stay flat to give plenty of room for my dogs - 1 small & 1 VERY large. The trays/storage in the boot floor is really handy & bigger than I expected. The leather has stayed as good as new, Betty is coming upto 10 yrs old & there’s not a crease in the leather! I’m no light weight so that says a lot about the quality of it. I’ve not had anything wrong with Betty & I must say I parked next to a different model of Chevrolet in my local supermarket car park & I did & do think Betty is a much better looking car, smart & tidy. Acceleration is fine, all round vision is good, good driving position. Nothing to complain about.
How reliable do you find the car?
Starts every time, servicing at local garage is straight forward. As a disabled person I need my car to be dependable which this definitely is.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
For a diesel it’s very quiet, clearly laid out dash & very easy to use, has hidden cubby-holes !About their car
