What does this car say about you?

Who cares?

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

Love it.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Probably - dependent on reliability and hope the seats are improved on next model.

What are you likely to buy next?

see above.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£17,000

When did you buy the car?

May 2011

Did you get a good deal and why?

I paid more than I originally intended because there was so much rubbish on the market. However, I think the price was fair.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Wanted a good car for towing and long trips with the family.

What was the dealer like?

I have great confidence in the Dealer (David Cheadle Motors, Wolverhampton) who obtained the vehicle from Nissan.

What's it like to drive?

Wonderful! Easiest car I've ever driven in over 40 years of motoring. Has made driving fun again! All I want to do is get in it and go. Only downsides are: Too little legroom and headroom for me at 6' tall. Seat lacks support on the squab and is somewhat narrow. Better seats would be great and are the only thing that spoils this vehicle. Hence, no 5* rating.

What's it like to park?

Great with the reversing camera.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Not yet. Only had the car for a few weeks, so too early to comment on reliability. Dealer gave me a one year warranty.

What's most practical about your car?

Good all-rounder 4x4 for day to day use as well as towing.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Reversing camera, cruise control.
