Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Well water-pump went but taken to a garage near-by and was sorted. Both water-pump and cam-belt were done including labour £120. So not that expensive
What's most practical about your car?
It has 60/40 floding rear seats which helps alot and also a very large boot for a very small car. Can fit 5 adults in was a squeeze tho!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Well my favourite option is the full Leather interior, very comfortable and surportive.
