No

£500

When did you buy the car?

March 2006

Did you get a good deal and why?

£500 pounds off of Ebay, needed a tyre for the mot, even the aircon is still cold, can't say fairer than that!

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

needed a big estate for big dogs!

What was the dealer like?

N/A

What's it like to drive?

handles better than anything else I've ever owned, pulls smoothly in fifth from 30mph up hill and down dale, lovely on the motorway and fun on A and B roads when the wife is at home, doesn't seem hard to drive in town even though I know its big.

What's it like to park?

find a big space or keep looking, its a LONG car!

Have you had any problems with the car?

177,000 miles and the head gasket is starting to go, the computer tell me when the coolent level drops and I top it back up, it will cost more to fix than the car did to buy, so I'm looking for another one, wouldn't want anything else.

What's most practical about your car?

HUGE interior, huge exterior come to think of it, 5 people and a big dog and no-one is short of space.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

the computer that tells me when the coolant is getting low is the life saver at the moment, but the aircon still cold helps in the warm weather too.
