Great deal. I got back what I had paid the previous year for my trade in, tyres were changed free for better off road use tyres. Tow bar with twin sockets fitted free. Mats free and next years breakdown cover arranged in advance. Ful tank of diesel and 1st years service at 10000 at £100

I had seen this car in my local village garage and having already got a 2007 model which I had bought second hand decided to treat myself to a car with only 64 miles on the clock

What was the dealer like?

Fabulous. But it is a village garage and he likes to keep his customers happy.

Easy to drive. Cruises all day with a twin axle caravan on tow at the legal limit and very unusual to have to change down a gear. None, or very little road noise, good lighting and great radio/C.D.

Not too bad but could do with sensors as rear window is quite small.

No

Towing and off road ability
