Was given a much higher than expected part ex. price for my 04 VW Golf.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

I used to own an old shape Cherokee in 1996 and liked the look of the new Patriot. Then found out that it had one of the best made diesel engines in it (VW) and that 40 plus mpg was common.

What was the dealer like?

The same family run dealership that I dealt with 12 years before. Friendly and honest. In fact it was the same salesman from 12 years previous.

What's it like to drive?

Far better than the Cherokee I owned 12 years ago. Great in all conditions. Plenty of power when needed and feels safe and secure.

What's it like to park?

Its actually quite narrow, although feels a lot wider with those big wing mirrors sticking out. All in all easy to park.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing to date.

What's most practical about your car?

Good luggage space, especially with the rear seats down.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Heated seats
