Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing Serious, Back Box had to be replaced, tyres, battery, but one thing that keeps going wrong is the spare wheel carrier hits the ground and I nearly lost my spare wheel and also now my braking system warning light flickers on the dashboard under heavy acceleration for some reason!?!?!?
What's most practical about your car?
For the size you can get a lot in them, I used it to transport chairs and sofas and even got a double bed in their once albeit with no room for back seat passengers, I treat it like a van but it's a good all rounder.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
my own sat nav device, sony x-plod cd player which previous owner left in for me
