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

In their own words

My version had the LPG conversion done and saves me hundreds in fuel without the loss of power at all! It has towed everything from a single motorbike trailer to a fully loaded double horsebox without skipping a beat or giving me cause for concern. The boot space is fantastic and is ample space for my 2 large dogs to travel in over long distances without complaint. Running costs are minimal as a tank of gas costs £35 and runs for about 450 miles, coupled with the petrol tank I can drive around 1000 miles without worrying about filling up. It has a very smooth ride and is easy to handle. Heated front seats are heaven in the winter making it a joy to drive. I paid very little for the car and expected it to be a typical work horse with nothing special however it has exceeded all expectations and I hope to continue owning and running it for many years to come.

How reliable do you find the car?

Passenger window runner had a fault but was fixed in minutes and the window now moves freely!

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Drove a lot nicer than expected, boot space is huge and carrys everything needed with space to spare. Has towed without a single issue.
