Living with it
Reliability
Fantastic diesel engine, mine did 108,000 when I sold it. Never let me down.
Image
Not a car for the image conscious.
Comfort
Good in the front, but not very supportive seats. Loads of legroom though.

Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser, but no alarm. Mind you, who'd want to nick one of these?

Problems and Ownership
Problems
Engine
Cracking engine, runs and runs and runs!

A good reliable car, let down by shocking build quality and thin panels. Handling is awful, too many blind spots and the worst dashboard glare on the front windscreen I have seen in 25 years motoring.

No
