Summary
What does this car say about you?
I value my family's safety and comfort. NB We bought the car with a tow-bar already fitted, which is the safety solution for the OLDER models with petrol tanks that are a little vulnerable in rear shunts.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Many have bought cheaper and less desirable rivals like Discoveries and Nissans but all really wanted a JEEP.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes, a newer version is a possibility if the budget allows.
What are you likely to buy next?
SUV
