Summary
What does this car say about you?
I wonder if he is a hairdresser?
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
I look like a hairdresser
Would you buy this car again and why?
No. Simply not a very refined car and the interior is very dated (Although the exterior is fine)Very nice car to have when the roof is down, but you could have a convertible transit van and it would be nice!
What are you likely to buy next?
Strangley, I have been looking at the new Megane convertible, but if I had the money, I would get the VW Eos in a heartbeat

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
I must admit, It's not the best car in the world to drive. The steering is heavy and the clutch is very stiff.
What's it like to park?
A high back and worn plastic rear window make parking a little hard, but when the roof is down it's as easy as parking can get!!

Living with it

Ended up paying £400 for an electrical fault that affected the timing when I got the timing belt changed

Not the most practical car in the world, but I guess if I was looking for practicality I would have bought a Scenic
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The roof!
