Great buy at current price

We went out shopping for a used MPV, that would tow our caravan, and came away with a new Orlando! Once the salesman had given us the deal price, all secondhand MPV's were forgotten. It's not a model that I would have looked at normaly, but at nearly half price it was hard to resist. None of this is any good if the vehicle turned out to be sub standard. In fact quite the opposite is true. The run-out model is particularly well equipped, coming with Cruise, Privacy Glass, Fogs,fully adjustable steering column etc. It drives just great, smooth and quiet with little body roll. The access to the rear seats is gained by folding the middle row (60x40) which then automatically tip forward to give a high level of accessability, even for adults. The test drive was taken in the Demonstrater 163 BHP,and I was concerned, that the model on offer (130BHP) would be a slug in comparison! Not so, it has plenty of go, and it's hard to see why the higher output engine is justified. You would pay more come Insurance time! We are currently achieving 42.3 MPG (Tank to tank) and would expect this to improve when the engine loosens up.All this for £11500.
