Summary
What does this car say about you?
ALL THE WRONG THINGS PROBABLY!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Would you buy this car again and why?
NO, DIDNT EXPECT TO BE REPLACING AN INJECTOR PUMP BEFORE 180K AT THE EARLIEST. ALL THE ISSUES THESE CARS ARE ALLEGED TO GET ARE QUITE DAUNTING BUT THIS IS GUTTING.
What are you likely to buy next?
NOT SURE, AT A REAL LOSS WILL PROBABLY END UP BUYING A VAN FOR RUNNING AROUND IN AND A 4X4 FOR TOWING UNLESS THE GOVERNMENT MAKE VEHICLE OWNERSHIP A RICH PERSONS OCCUPATION.

OK ONCE YOU ARE USED TO ITS SIZE

NOT GOT ALOT OF GADGETS BUT THE AIR SUSPENSION IS USEFUL AND IT TOWS WELL.
