 BH.'s recommendation | |
very comfortable, roomy, excellent handling, quiet, don't have to turn the stereo up as you go faster!
For the three year warranty period had to have the car back to the dealer on numerous occassions (7) for airbag warning light, brakes, brake discs, ABS, and wobble on stearing, anti roll bar loose for some time until mot engineer found a fault this caused car to roll with some concern. squealing from brakes and I mean squealing!! Could do with folding down rear seats to accommodate larger luggage items.
The car if put together properly (mine was a friday afternoon car) is excellent, a fantastic ride, firm and comfortable. The car is now four years old and has finally been fixed. It seems almost a shame to consider replacing it as it is better now than it has ever been. Shame it took three and half years to put everything right under warranty.
