    My car

    I bought this because it had an HDI turbo diesel and because it is enormous inside. It also has Isofix child seat mountings which I really needed for my two grandchildren. The 2 litre engine is capable of huge mileages and if oil is changed regularly it is a car you can keep for ever. It is well built and the high driving position is fantastic especially in torrential rain. Certainly it is not a status symbol but that can be a good thing because it will not be stolen and it kind of takes away the need to keep replacing the car for all sorts of daft reasons. This car does everything. It is possible to to tow a caravan with ease and still have tons of space in the back of the car for the kitchen sink. When shopping you can unload a trolley in heavy rain because the tailgate acts like a roof. Ok so it is a van with windows ---but it you wouldn't swop it for a van so therein lies the difference. I bought mine with 49000 miles from a main dealer and it now has 67000 on the clock -that was 18 months ago. Apart from serviceable items I have had no problems whatsoever apart from busting a front spring mainly my own stupid fault for thinking I was driving a 4x4 which it most certainly is not. It is a joy to drive once you get used to a good bit of roll going round corners. It is also true to say that you are not harassed by other drivers because they just think you are probably going as fast as you can.
