No

We bought the car due to the flexible seat configurations and the good reviews we had read about the car.

We felt very confident with the dealer. There was never any fear that we would be ripped off and knew that if there was a problem, we could go back and it would be sorted out for us.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
We really like driving this, the power is there when you need it. I would like it to be more economical with fuel but given that its over 10 years old now, it's not doing too badly.
What's it like to park?
It is very easy to park. Sitting up higher than you would in a saloon or hatchback gives a great advantage to getting into small spaces.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The only real issue we have come across is a problem with the wiring loom severing which results in the central locking not working. Luckily my husband is quite handy and he can fix it but it took an awful lot of research to actually work out the problem initially.
What's most practical about your car?
The space and seat configurations.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
We have a very basic model but I can't say that we require anything else!
