Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Compared to other MPV's I thought it was good value. For a similar kind of specification for example on a Ford Focus C Max, you would have to buy the Ghia range.
Costs
Running costs are good, I am currently getting 45mpg around town. I also managed to get a good purchase cost by shopping around.

On the road
Driving
Drives well for an MPV
Performance
For a 1.5 100 bhp car very good, 2nd to 4th gear quite torky. An excellent around town car. If I did a lot of motorway driving I would probably opt for the 1.9 dci. However it does 80mph quite comfortably.

Living with it
Reliability
Overall good. However after just one week my car was back in the garage. I had a oil leak & I had to have the dif seal replaced.
Image
For a family MPV I think it looks quite sporty, I did upgrade on the wheels which I think enhances the overall look. Inside, the car is well designed & very modern.
Comfort
Very comfortable front & back, plenty of room for children or adults in the back.

Security
Had no problems so far.
Service
I can only comment on the dealership & not the manaufacture. The dealership could not do enough for me & were very apologetic abounts my faults and rectified my problems straight away.
