On the road
Driving
Smooth family car, good comfort for long distances.
Performance
It's a big heavy car and needs at least 150 bhp to get it motoring. Having driven the 130 TDi since, I prefer the diesel.

Living with it
Reliability
Very, very reliable.
Image
Doesn't have one, a great car for those with a family and wanting comfort and reliability but no one will ever notice the car.
Comfort
Good comfort and equipment levels.
