After my sisters husband died of cancer (very sad time for her) she said to me would I like her old car as she was going to use the family one from now on, I agreed and I have never looked back, the car had been left on the drive for over a year and after giving the battery a quick boost the car started first time, a quick service later and the car was back on the road. It is very comfortable and quite quick, its a great family car with plenty of leg room in the front and back and all seats are comfortable, its great on long motorway trips and will average 110 without really breaking a sweat and doesn't use up too much fuel we recently hit the south coast from High Wycombe and only filled it up once. Great car and would recommend it 100%. The price of a fore tyre change is cheap as I was quoted on my last service £150 so less than £50 a wheel is great motoring.
The cd changer is in the boot so strap it down quite securely as the cds will jump if you go over any bumps. The manual 5 speed gearbox is smooth and easy to access all gears and steering is adjustable and will drop quite low if need be. The adjustable seats are fiddly as the levers are tucked right down the side but it is bearable and there is plenty of room in the driving seat to fit me I'm 6ft 1inch.
Even if I didn't get this car for free I was going to offer £2000 as it is a great car and for value for money you cannot go wrong.
Summary: great family car
