Cruises well, but initial acceleration sluggish.

Living with it
Reliability
Numerous faults right from the start. Petrol gauge did not work and took 3 months to repair! Air con failed, indicators faulty, electric window fault, front suspension made various noises.
Image
Looks good with 16" alloys. Wish I could get the 17" challenger wheels.
Comfort
Good seats and plenty of room in the back.

Security and Service
Security
Seems quite clever. Locks itself if you don't open the doors straight away.
Service
Bought from Elton Garages, Rochdale. Was consistently fobbed off with lies and excuses. Incompetent and unprofessional.
