What were your needs when you bought this car? Has it fulfilled those needs?

Economical for 2.5L car. Safety features to overcome my age limitations Power to tow boat and caravan The car has surpassed my expectations and in fact it is the best car I have ever owned.

What were your initial thoughts about the car? Tell us why it appealed to you.

Shape appealed and the advances in technology my previous cars lacked. Like GPS, parking sensors, cruise control,,lane warning,reversing camera and electric handbrake.

What have you discovered since owning the car?

Very reliable Power when you need it Good around town and on the open highway. Massive boot and space when the back seats are down for my sailing stuff.

What do you like/dislike about the car?

I find it a very long car to park particularly with a tow ball. I needed to update the electrics to cope with the power needed to run all of the caravan lights I don't like the cloth upholstery. I have towed my caravan and and boats all around NZ with no problems.

Any other comments on the car?

I have owned and driven a lot of cars over 40y and this one is by far the best.
