In their own words

The Tarraco is a fantastic car, we got it because 9fbthe size of the boot which is needed for medical equipment and it's 700 litres in 5 seat mode is perfect for our needs. I have the Excellence model and am very happy with the spec included. The engine and DSG gearbox are fantastic, plenty of power when needed and cruises comfortably. MPG on average is only about 30 at the moment but I do lots of shortctrips and it's only the first 1000 miles so it will no doubt improve. My youngest enjoys riding in the rear seats when we haven't got a boot full but I wouldn't recommend it for older teenagers or adults as they aren't that roomy, the middle row however is very spacious and can slide forwards amd backwards and recline a bit. I was fortunate enough to get the MY21 update on the Tarraco so have a whole new infotainment system and better heating controls which all work well although the Satnav is a bit less intuitive than I would like and awkward to navigate so I just tend to use apps through the Android Auto connection. I am extremely happy with the car and will probably stick with Seta when upgrading as the dealer was also very good.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

I didn't expect to like the Adaptive cruise control but have come to use it a lot, I haven't go the park assist to work yet but I'm probably doing something wrong.
