Frequently in the garage for small repairs. Service not cheap. Very thirsty in all conditions.

Reasonable.

Living with it
Reliability
Lots of electrical faults. Parking sensors have never been right and Ford dealer can't sort this out. May be linked to a presence of a tow bar - but surely, a people carrier should be able to have a tow bar in place?
Comfort
Nice driving position but seat offer little lateral support.
-
Security and Service
Service
Local dealer very helpful but admits to struggling with some faults. Very reliant on diagnostic kit which fails to detect a significant number of electrical faults.
