Summary
What does this car say about you?
Nothing, thats what I love about it. Loads of car nuts speak to you at petrol stations though.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Sold it to my wife on the basis it was a practical estate... She loves it too but now realises it doesnt exactly sip fuel. Plan to convert it to LPG which will make it a great all rounder.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Without hesitation.
What are you likely to buy next?
A newer one
-
Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Didn't buy from a dealer
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£0
When did you buy the car?
August 2010
Did you get a good deal and why?
Reasonable deal but these cars hold their value well and are sold to people in the know!
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
A client has one and he took me for a spin in his.
What was the dealer like?
-
Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Surprisingly agile, have owned several sports cars and this "family wagon" puts them to shame. Bilstein shocks all round as standard and the low centre of gravity make for fun roundabouts.
What's it like to park?
It's long but the rear parking sensors make it a breeze. Mine also has a reversing camera which I think was an optional extra.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing so far, have only had it 5 months but don't expect any problems as they are bulletproof.
What's most practical about your car?
Needed the large boot but live at the top of a hill and have spent the month of December 2010 laughing at all the Chelsea Tractors getting stuck in the snow and ice halfway up, when I can just glide by
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Sat nav is excellent and all my friends want an accelometer in their car now.
