Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No, the back seat mechanisms needed WD40 when we first got it as it hadn't been used but that's it.
What's most practical about your car?
It's practicality on wheels, the middle seats all fold forward so the back seats removed, the space is huge! We have had a complete single bed in there, 3 seater plus 2 seater sofas and 2 adults, 3 kids and 2 grandparents with pram, picnic, bags etc fit easily. It has 3 12v points, 1 in each section so kids have a charger, so do we and the cool box is plugged in the back.
