Little tricky to adjust to size at first, but easy peasy now, parking sensors are a god send!

Bit sluggish when cold, but can fly on a motorway, surprisingly 'nippy' .

Living with it
Reliability
Apart from initial problem with air con when bought, no problems at all yet - touch wood!
Image
Lets face it; its an MPV and they're not sexy.
Comfort
Very comfortable to drive especially with all the usual ghia kit!

Security and Service
Security
Usual bog standard stuff.
Service
Very good so far, even gave me the use of another Galaxy whilst mine was being repaired after purchase, one gripe; why do Ford insist on giving Galaxy drivers their smallest cars as courtesy cars? I got the Ka three times! Now I ask for something bigger!
