Driving
Love this car on the road, in town and motorway. It just cruises.

Does everything a girl could want from a car and has BAGS of room in the boot for shopping.

Living with it
Reliability
Only problem is the IDLE VALVE, which is a pain as the car continually stalls. But not always necessary to be replaced as a good clean works wonders! Expensive bit of kit.
Image
Apart from "Is that a company car", I think it has plenty of street cred and looks better than the latest models.
Comfort
Comfy seats. Plenty of room for a family of 5 or all your mates on a weekend away.

Security and Service
Security
Love the remote deadlocks. Have never had a problem with security.
Service
Had loads of hassle when I bought the car with them passing the buck and not intending to honour their advertised sales offer!
