Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not cheap, but good all round if you have lots of kids.

    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Expensive servicing, with some costly replacements, i.e. clutch/flywheel brake discs etc. Started servicing myself now. MPG fair for diesel.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Fairly good for its size, but steering and clutch with age seem to get heavier. Good on long journeys, i.e. Poland!

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Older style diesel, so bit sluggish. Once on motorway ok. Have done 6 up plus an old caravan OK.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Nothing that has ever left us by the side of the road. But loads of electrical things have stopped working, ie washers, clock, 1 electric window switch, rev counter, air conditioning etc.

    Its a people carrier, it does the job without having to look especially good. Packs a lot in for its compact size. My wifr now hates to driver smaller and lower vehicles.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Driver and front passenger fine. Not that big a space for adults in back, but seats can be moved for more room, but you loose boot space. The girls get sick sometimes, but the boys in the back read all day without being ill!

  • Security and Service

    Security

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Silly key pad start system which falls apart. Central locking remote, the key can break. No alarm on mine.

    Service

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Costly at main dealer.

    Engine

    Nothing that has ever left us by the side of the road. But loads of electrical things have stopped working, i.e. washers, clock, 1 electric window switch, rev counter, air conditioning etc.
