Living with it

When I first had it a warning light came on for oil level, which was correct by removing the overfilled oil. Electric connector on Passenger Elec seat keeps comming off, no big issue.

7 Seats, good size boot, overall size of car not as big as many of competition.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Fully Auto A/C better than earlier models. 7 Seats great. Parking sensors a must!
