A brilliant car! Comfortable and very reliable. In 37,000 miles it has needed a new rear wiper blade and 1 headlamp bulb. Even the tyres are still the originals. Regularly get 50mpg and never below 46 even when loaded to the roof with a roof box fitted. Dealer service is fantastic and very friendly (Constitution Motors in Norwich). The overall package of space, comfort, economy, reliability and dealer service is absolutely first class. Highly recommended.

I've only had this car a week but really put it through its paces already. For the price it is faultless hence five stars. It was purchased as a cheap family work horse for taking the dog on muddy walks, transporting lawnmowers and jobs like taking stuff to the dump etc.. - Sat Nav is superb BUT speakers are very poor quality and everytime the car is restarted the USB music forgets it last setting. Notably shuffle all folders. It continues playing the next track from folder it left off on. Also the sat nav voice comes back on even though it had been turned off. This is quite an irritation for me. Even after latest firmware update the issue persists. - Super comfortable. The seats are much comfier and more supportive than the BMW E90 I came from. - I wish it was just a little bit perkier to drive but hey its not marketed as a sporty car. - Loads of space! - Tonnes of gadgets and gizmos. It's the first car I have had with a speed limiter and cruise control which I am going to love. - It seems like it is going to be peanuts cheap to run (probably into the ground due to poor resale values). - Build quality is better than expected. - I think its quite smart looking especially from the rear. The front is a little bug eyed and slightly OTT.

At first it looked like a very good car, but then the problems started. Air conditioning failed, ESP failed. The dealer didn't found the problem with the ESP. It voluntarily shuts-off and on. The air conditioning needs repairing (no guarantee), a hole in the water-reservoir (no idea how). Noisy engine.

Comfortable, well equipped and economical. Excellent build quality backed up by 5 year unlimited mileage warranty and breakdown cover. Steering lacking feel. Overall, great family car.

Great car with nice lines. Radio has a blue background that is a too bright at night, even when dimmed down. Hooks in cargo area are next to useless! Defrost could be better, but maybe I should read the manual as I could be doing it wrong. Having issues getting snow chains for car. Dealer could be more knowledgeable and helpful. Looked at the Focus - didn't like the shiny bling of Ford trim and the handbrake felt loose. Looked at the Golf - but could get over it's boring rear end. Looked at the Octavia - but felt it was a tad big.
