2004 Opel Meriva 1.6 Ecotec
Summary:
Good for travelling, do not raise high expectations
Faults:
A general feeling of cheap plastic, though leather seats add to comfort. Annoying noises generated from front panel when heat vent is on. Bad assembly causes the door panels to creak when speaker volume exceeds mid (and I am not a bass-freak!).
Consumption 9+ ltr / 100klms??? Tech not very Eco.
General Comments:
Seats are comfortably high, although front-side visibility might trouble in some cases. Travels very comfortably and reasonably quiet over long distances, while the tight suspension keeps it on the road.
I would buy it again for the spacious interior, the height of the seats, its concise body and vibrant engine. I can live without fine plastics...
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No
