I like just about everything about the Alhambra, but I'm not that keen on its sat-nav system. You can't choose a postcode as a destination and the display screen is rather small, especially for such a big car. The graphics are rather basic compared with some systems, too. For all that, it still gets me to where I want to go, so it does the job perfectly well. I'm just nit-picking, really.

I’ve hardly driven the Alhambra recently; there’s a seemingly endless list of colleagues that want to borrow it for holidays, house moves and the like. It’s not hard to see why, when the Alhambra is so practical and flexible. It’s nice to think that it’s in such demand, but the car suits my needs so sell that I’m always glad when it gets returned to its rightful owner.
