What does this car say about you?

Sensible, maybe cheap!

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

They think it's a nice car. Sensible compared to my previous (M3, M5 BMW).

Would you buy this car again and why?

I suppose i'd have the diesel estate, though the prices are so much higher.

What are you likely to buy next?

Probably a diesel or LPG estate or exec.

Didn't buy from a dealer

No

£2,550

When did you buy the car?

September 2011

Did you get a good deal and why?

Just a little under book price.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Wanted a practical and reliable car that could support my new family.

What was the dealer like?

Private seller, I never use dealers.

What's it like to drive?

Nice and comfortable seats, cruises well, though could possibly have gone for the 2.4 for the sixth gear over anything. Could do with a little more torque, but a lovely VTEC growl at the top end. Handles well, though slightly dead steering.

What's it like to park?

Could do with sensors to protect the painted bumpers (like any modern car).

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing.

What's most practical about your car?

Split fold rear seats on a saloon are welcome.
