2003 Opel Meriva Enjoy review from Portugal
"Practical, secure and with brilliant flexibility"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Some parasitic noises in the plastics, near the date/temperature central display.
The final price had a deviation of +800€ from the agreed one when ordered, due to an abnormal increase in the base price from the manufacturer. Very annoying.
A standard item (at the time of the order) was missing. Apparently it is now (only now!) an optional item. Very annoying.
General comments?
The Easytronic robotized gear is marvelous at its simplicity and smoothness.
It seams very secure, handling very well all kind of roads and weather.
Very comfortable to up to 4 people (I have two small kids).
