    What does this car say about you?

    I've got a lot of children.

    What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

    They know we have a lot children.

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    Yes. With 4 small children we need a big car. Having tried a tradition mpv when the extra seat was up we had very little boot space. We can now fit all the children, the dog, three bikes and a pushchair into the car. As the children get bigger there will be plenty of space for their growing legs and we will still have the boot space for the weekly shop.

    What are you likely to buy next?

    The same. With a 5 year warranty, all the options and at least 30 mpg, plus a good drive I would be foolish to pay more for one of the more popular van mpvs on the market. A similar spec VW or Mercedes would cost twice as much.

    What's it like to drive?

    Lovely. Powerful. Great driving position and view. Fantastic tow vehicle.

    What's it like to park?

    Okay. You soon get use to it. The rear parking sensors are helpful. easily fits into the spaces at the local supermarket and even easier if you can get the larger parent and toddler spaces. Multi stories can be an issue with the height restrictions.

    The full cap release sitch. Fixed under the great 5 year warranty.

    The children love the mood lighting being able to choose the colour. Whilst up front driving it must be the simple heating controls for front and rear.
