Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Loads! There is a really bad knock coming from the rear that no one seems to be able to repair. The car looses power and seems to mis fire slightly for no reason. The interior trim seems to get looser everytime I get in it! The aircon works when if feels like it.
What's most practical about your car?
Good boot size.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
There aren't any really!
