First child born, needed a larger & more practical cal than my lil 3 door corsa
What was the dealer like?
The dealer (chippenham motor company) has been fantastic, great service during and after the sale. There was a small part missing, the sales man came to where i work to look at the car then came back 3 days later with the part to fix it, never even suggested that I would have to go to them

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Hardly rolls round corners at all, easy too drive and cos it requires lil effort i can stay relativly calm in it which is impressive for me
What's it like to park?
Pretty good, its a lot larger than my corsa so has taken some getting used to but the visability is that good that I have got used to it quickly

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Ever so slight rattle in dashboard which i cannot locate, hardly noticable most of the time though
What's most practical about your car?
Where to start? Its roomy, seats are easy to remove to make boot huge, great visability, comfy and fantastic MPG
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Cruise control is useful when driving motorway, climate control is also good but best would have to be all the storage I have got....there are lil cubby holes all over the car
