Summary
What does this car say about you?
It says I have 2 kids and at the moment, getting jam all over the seats isn't the end of the world.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Nothing. It's bland and it is a car. Thats about it.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Hmmm....Probably not due to the build quality. But if it was the deal of the decade, maybe.
What are you likely to buy next?
Probably a vauxhall.

Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchised
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£4,988
When did you buy the car?
January 2011
Did you get a good deal and why?
It wasnt too bad - The trade in price was tiny however, and the warranty although seemed good value, doesn't seem to cover much.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Needed the space for 2 kids and needed something economical.
What was the dealer like?
They were pleasant as all dealers are wanting a sale.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Its a people carrier, so it's like piloting a small yacht around the corners, but it's reasonable around town, and great on the motorway.
What's it like to park?
Very easy. Short nose and stubby back means its easier to park than a kids cosy coupe.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Has it ever. The first 18 months were like having a 2 year old child. Tantrums, breakdown, refusal to to what is asked etc etc. Replaced all the suspension and many other bits too.
What's most practical about your car?
The flexible seats.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Erm....The removal seats and flat floor are brilliant.
