Summary
What does this car say about you?
Not a lot. Family man?
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
I have no idea and I don't really care to be honest. It's a decent drive (not quick enough mind you), has plenty of space and is a safe car to drive.
Would you buy this car again and why?
No. The 1.6 petrol engine is very slow and I'm always concerned about the electrics. Will they work???!!!
What are you likely to buy next?
Ford S-MAX or Galaxy, or a Vauxhall Zafira.

No

October 2010

Price and safety.

Great - gave a fair price for my part-ex.

A piece of cake.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Yes. One window doesn't work and another decides when it wants to. Alarm goes off for no reason at times, too. £300-plus for cambelt change wasn't easy on the wallet either.
What's most practical about your car?
Space. We can get in a buggy and shopping with ease. Also great for a holiday as my wife doesn't pack lightly.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Cruise control is a bonus.
