What does this car say about you?
Not alot really.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
A bit of a banger, but if you ride in one then the ride quality beats other estates hands down.

Yes, cannot really fault it, apart from the nagging feeling that it might go wrong!!!! That is what everyone tells me will happen.

I would buy another- For a large diesel automatic (40-50mpg on a run) nothing like it at the price.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Had to replace starter motor and exhaust But both items were very cheap (Full exhaust inc cat £110). As my C5 is the 2.0 HDI, it has no FAP so hopefully a cheaper long term prospect.
What's most practical about your car?
Very large estate/ also though my model is base LX it still has aircon/CD player and fuel computer.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Suspension raises/lowers at a touch of a button. Great for rough roads etc.
