Buying experience

Franchise
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£11,000
When did you buy the car?
May 2008
Did you get a good deal and why?
Looks simply like new but 9 months old. 2600 miles. Pre-registered by Chrysler and very good finance deal.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Outstanding value for money. My partner just bought a Chrysler Sebring and the Dodge is really a more sporty version of that.
What was the dealer like?
John Gill's Harrogate. Outstanding - couldn't be more helpful. No high pressure, just pleasant process from start to finish.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very good. Trading up from a 10 year old car to any of today's family cars is a small leap but this car feels just right and instantly familiar. Ignore the Jeremy Clarkson type reviews - for the average man in the street this is the real deal.
What's it like to park?
High back end fools you into thinking you are closer than you really are - would benefit from set of rear sensors. Otherwise fine.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing at all.
What's most practical about your car?
Good economy, comfortable leather standard seats and huge boot.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Factory fitted MyGig 'Infotainment' system. This is just fantastic and incorporates SATNAV, CD, DVD and built in 20 GIG hard drive all touch screen controlled or voice activated.
