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

In their own words

I love the right height and seats are really comfy. The car is definitely quick enough an shifts if you put your foot down, but naturally lacks the torque of the diesel. Fuel consumption isn’t great but what do people expect of a car this size in a 1.4 petrol?! I find the drive unbelievably smooth and it handles like a saloon. I love vws and I feel this doesn’t drive too dissimilar to a golf. It’s also unbelievably practical with loads of boot room and versatile seats. I have 3 kids, two of which need car seats and this works perfectly. Can’t comment on reliability this soon into ownership but no issues to date. The interior feels solid enough, as you’d expect from a very. I would recommend this car to anybody with a young family and personally find this the best MPV out there all things considered.

How reliable do you find the car?

Not had car long enough to comment. Had rear brake / indicator out when I picked it up (!) but other than that no issues to date in 4 months of ownership.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Love the ride height and find drive very smooth. Infotainment is rubbish but that’s true across VW range IMO. Lovely steering and quick off the mark.
