Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Like any car needs maintenance. I own a car for 10 years and in that time I've done a lot repairs and I have changed a lot parts.more important problems that I had were so-called "bitron" which controls the swiching of the cooling fans. In wet and rainy weather regularly had problems with it. My opinion this is due to the wrong place this device is installed - under the left wing.
What's most practical about your car?
Most practical thing about this car - big rack (rear seats folded).
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Some of my favorite features include the regulation of the driver's seat and height adjustable steering wheel.
