Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Yes. The question you should be asking is "What hasn't gone wrong". at the moment its in the garage getting a new gear box because it broke. No fault of my own. Electric have all gone had to get them repaired. Engine turns off if going a long way on motorway, Dealer says its something to do with too much radiator fluid in radiator and can be common. Has been recalled twice for steering collum. Rattles are very common. Too many things have gone wrong so im going to leave it there.
What's most practical about your car?
Its boot it an ok size. Enougth for me. The glove box is small and won't even fit the owners manual in it so i have to have it in the boot.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Radio is brilliant. Can't fault it.
