Excellent car. Handles brilliantly. Automatic lights, windscreen wipers and clutch make a difference. Excellent for a small family as there's plenty of space over a normal hatchback.
A versatile and competant car. Adequate perfomance and excellent fuel economy, averaging 55mpg over two years. Bought with elderly parents in mind, getting in and out of the back is easy and the 'comfort' seat mode is very clever. It is a useful load carrier for son's drums and gig equipment. Reasonable running costs. Two gripes: driving position and seats could be better, and forward quarter vision obscured by thick pillars. I would buy another one but would want cruise control. Recommended.
Back to the garage on 17 occasions from new with faults including engine management problems - towed/fetched by green flag/dealer on 4 occasions, ABS problems, constant rattling/vibration in cabin, replacement alternator, numerous warning symbols lighting up, audio problems, boot opening when car is in motion, suspension problems. In short, the car has good engine performance and is comfortable but reliability - on this one - was non-existent.
