2002 Ford Galaxy Ghia review from UK and Ireland
"I'm delighted with this car."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seat back release knob, broke off on one of rear seats.Very minor fault.
General comments?
Very impressed indeed after first 4000 miles.
POSITIVE
Engine and 6 Speed Gearbox are excellent and allows for precise control over speed and torque. Acceleration is good even with 7 passengers.
Space, passenger access, gadgets, Audio system, and layout all very good.
NOT SO POSITIVE.
The crushed Velour seats attract dirt like a magnet.
Heating controls (small radio type push-button) are annoying to use and the LCD showing the temperature and fan speed is not the easiest to see when driving.
Even with a heated front windscreen it takes a while to de-mist and often mists up when driving.
