No.

£0

September 2008

Did you get a good deal and why?

It was bought at a decent price. Not the cheapest or the most expensive.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

To accomodate all the family needs.

What was the dealer like?

Not the greatest. I don't like dealers who look uninterested claiming the cars sell themselves.

What's it like to drive?

If you want a nice ride? Then this is not the car for you. In truth, it's a very hard ride. If you live in a speed bump heavy area? It's not pleasant at all.

What's it like to park?

I've found awkward to park. The steering lock is woeful. Brace yourself for lots of three point turns.

Have you had any problems with the car?

The heater has played up constantly and tyres wear unevenly and quickly.

What's most practical about your car?

The seats fold down well meaning you can fit most things in. If it's not to high. The height isn't the best.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Seat combinations.
