Tell us what you think about your car?

The car has a hard ride, is too low off ground, the rear seat belt anchors don't have sunken recess, so cut into leather seat back if folded down. Anchor points in boot too small for daily use. Rear door is too low for the likes of a wheelchair. No protector on rear bumper, so if you have a dog, it will get scratched! The passenger front seat could do with going back further - just to help getting Granny in. Warning labels on outer doors, exposing why the VWs are gassing the public in 2015 models.
