What does this car say about you?

Practical, professional and er that's it.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Friends like being driven around in it. Family love it especially the kids and grandparents.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Definitely if they still made this model. Newer version still too expensive.

What are you likely to buy next?

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£6,000

When did you buy the car?

December 2008

Did you get a good deal and why?

Paid what the car was worth but the engine had a cam problem which they repaired - it cost them £2500! so in that respect I got a great car for the money.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

My Dad had one and swore it was a superb car - he was right!

What was the dealer like?

Helpful and efficient despite being a Ford dealer.

What's it like to drive?

Great. Torquey engine, pliant and comfortable ride albeit a little soft in corners. Handles well for an estate and can go anywhere you put it, on or off road. Marvellous.

What's it like to park?

Simple with parking sensors front and rear.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Door locks worn, rear electric window motor replaced but the car is 10 years old so all reasonable defects. Other than that the car has been sweet as a nut.

What's most practical about your car?

Tough all round so it carries my 4 year old twins and all their mess without batting an eyelid. Great all rounded in all weathers. Most practical all round car I've ever owned - period.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Air suspension that you can raise and lower.
