Very reliable
Rear wheel brake cylinders at 70,000 miles.
The jeep is very reliable, as it has the Mazda Turbo Diesel engine.

Represents excellent value and is a good introduction into SUV's
Nothing has gone wrong with the car.
This car offers a different driving experience from standard family cars.
Visibility is excellent and the driving position instills a sense of security.
The steering takes a little getting used to since it is very sensitive and when driving on uneven surfaces it is necessary to make constant adjustments.
Boot space is limited and represents a problem when carrying four passengers and their luggage.
The construction of the vehicle is adequate with nothing special in the way of gadgets, I particularly miss an outside temperature gauge.

A great all-rounder
Nothing has gone wrong with this car.
Being Japanese it is extremely reliable and considering it is a 4x4 it is a better vehicle to use on a long distance than my Toyota Avensis.
The soft top fits perfectly and it is not too noisy. I can cruise down the motorway at 80mph listening to my CD player without a problem.
The 2.0L 16v engine has 130bhp and the vehicle whilst being quite big, is not very heavy so this engine really gives the GV a serious turn of speed.
You can certainly surprise a few reps in their Mondeos with this car.
A great car all year round. 4x4 for the winter and a soft top for the summer, what could be better!
