Living with it

good. at 170 000 km (100 000 miles) it begins to show some problems but not life-threathening. radio, electric windows
Image
quite rational, looks a bit out of proportion
Comfort
Quite roomy and comfortable for 4 adults, big boot. Best on highways though steering is a bit sensitive.
