Summary
What does this car say about you?
That I want good value practical transport. If people think it's not a brilliant car, watch their faces when you shoot past when it snows. And no snob factor as it's not a Chelsea tractor.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Most practical car I've bought.
Would you buy this car again and why?
If it was as good value as what I got this one for then yes. But I hope to keep this one until it is run into the ground.
What are you likely to buy next?
Something sporty for nipping around to have alongside the practical car.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Not the fastest thing on 4 wheels but it's not for that. Handles ok though. Soft suspension is the best though. I actually speed up for speed bumps. Jump kerbs. On motorway at 80 is just like normal car. High position is comforting too.
What's it like to park?
I have tinted windows. People can't see in but I can't see out. Without the tints though it would be fine as there are so many windows. It is a big car though so not as easy as supermini.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong. It had problems that I knew of an expected and have been surprised and how cheap parts are. New exhaust, all parts even cat = £200
What's most practical about your car?
7 seats or a large boot so I can carry my family or tools whenever I need to. Even had both in at one stage due to christmas shopping season.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
I always have a thing for a sun roof But switching from rear wheel drive to 4 wheel has to be the best. Snow drifting is fun.
