Vauxhall 2016 Meriva

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

Bought from auction a mobilty car. Very low mileage but a little unloved . Ie dents and scratches but full service history. I really do like this car with this engine. The electronic brake takes a little getting used too. And maybe I should have done more research about modern diesel engine. Don't buy if you only do Short journeys.

How reliable do you find the car?

Turbo failed at 16000 miles replace by vauhall good will gesture. Although I had to pay for dpf to be cleaned 500 quid bill

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Very good performance from the 1.6 cdti engine feels like a 2.0lt. Good mpg around 44 average
