Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

A lot of car for the money, nice powerful engine, nice auto gearbox, nice and spacious inside,huge boot space, chunky vehicle. All this is let down by constant engine issues. When I owned the car it had the following problems. Egr needed replacing, Maf sensor problem, dpf issue car kept regenerating,manifold runner error, needed new manifold to sort problem, different error codes kept coming up. Car cabin heating issue you had to have temp upto 29 to get heat in winter garage could never find or fix issue. Car is also very heavy on fuel 24.5 mpg I was getting. Also expensive to tax and insure due to external body parts not being avaliable in the uk. The internet is the only place you can get parts for them. Insurance company will write them off after an accident as they are to expensive to repair due to new parts only being avaliable from Chevy in America. As I said you get a lot of car for the money but be prepared to have deep pockets to run and maintain one of these cars.

How reliable do you find the car?

Egr, maf,manifold runner.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

No to many issues with car in 2 years of ownership.
