No, no problems at all. Has been reliable for 27,000 miles in 5 years

Little touches like the curry hook in the front passenger well, so you dont spill your takeaway, and the space under the front passenger seat for hiding things!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The keyless entry is great, especially when its raining, so you dont get wet when you are trying to find the key!
