Buying experience

Franchise
Did you buy this car new?
Yes
What price did you pay?
£12,500
When did you buy the car?
October 2008
Did you get a good deal and why?
Excellent deal. They beat a well known internet broker including the extras I specified. I saved £2000 on list price.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
I needed a car that had a big boot but small enough for tight country lanes, was cheap to run and would be reliable.
What was the dealer like?
Very good. Hassle free, nice to deal with and keen to to a deal and keep my custom for the future.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very comfortable and handles better than I had expected for an estate on the twisty stuff, making it a reasonably fun drive.
What's it like to park?
Very easy as it has standard reversing sensors.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Absolutely nothing.
What's most practical about your car?
Huge boot-bigger than an Audi A4 estate my neighbour has.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
ESP-Glad i specified it as an option as its already saved me from a crash!!
