Summary

4 out of 5

What does this car say about you?
Solid, dependable practical person.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Actually they all love it, and that surprised me. Biggest shock of all was that the ladies really rate this car! I think it must be because it reminds them of what their Dad might have driven!

Would you buy this car again and why?
Yeah I would. For a family car on a reasonable budget, it does the job.

What are you likely to buy next?
With an expanding family, it has to be another saloon. But I think I will go back to a Subaru or Evo. This could definitely be one for the other half though.
