Did you buy this car new?
Yes

N/a -company car, so I get clobbered for tax on the full asking price, regardless.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Handles well, enough guts (130 bhp ecoflex), yet still get around 50mpg if careful.
What's it like to park?
Doddle with sensors, could even do without, but I had them added to order.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Have only done 18,000 miles in 18 months ..so early days yet.
What's most practical about your car?
'Tourer' model handles more like a car than the previous (standard) Zafira B & C.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Bluetooth phone/mp3/DAB radio is a boon, as well as fogs/parking sensors, and of course a 'normal' handbrake !
