Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Good equipment but not worth money since drives so badly!
Costs
Can just about squeeze 45mpg on very careful driving (against supposed 48). VW Gold diesel was far superior.

On the road
Driving
Good at cornering, but hardwork on motorway. Small winds cause it to blow around - struggle to keep in straight line.
Performance
Reasonably quick.

Living with it
Reliability
Had to have engine recalibrated to sort out stutter.

Comfort
Seats and driving position very comfortable.
