1.4T 140 SRi 5dr

Decent car, comfortable but runs out of puff!

We needed a 5 seater, with big boot space for camping. The extra two seats come in very handy at times. When we got it the heater/AC fan wasn't working, not impressed for a then 3 year old car. Dealer was excellent though and replaced it free of charge and has been fine since. Dealer was a multi-franchise and was ending their deal with Vauxhall so we got the car at a very decent price.

Performance is adequate. the 1.4 engine does need a decent amount of right foot at times, and on undulating country roads its gets frustrating to have to rapidly change down through the gears to keep moving. Fuel economy is OK but a recent trip to south Devon really killed the economy!

The luggage space is great, we can fit all our camping gear in there. It would be great if it had a net like some estate cars have that reach from ceiling to floor behind the middle row of seats, if you're really loaded you have to be careful not to have things fall on the rear passengers.

Its been a reliable, solid car for the last 3 years, long may it continue!
