Vauxhall Meriva 1.6 8V Design 5d (AC) (2004/04) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
On the contract hire deal great value. Wouldn't pay full retail, way overpriced.
Costs
None so far. Did 37 mpg on long run. Seems a bit juicy in stop/start motoring.

Driving
Handles well for a high sided vehicle. Good grip surprisingly little body roll. But like all front wheel drive understeers if you push it. Decent power steering. Still a wee bit light for my taste. Pleasant drive.
Performance
No road rocket but good pull in third, which is where you need it for overtaking.

Reliability
Have problems selecting reverse occasionally.
Image
Mine came in black with nice set of alloys. High Bling Factor. Cheeky looking.
Comfort
Nice environment. Good spec. Nice finish. Would have liked height adjustable steering.
