"They don't sell this version anymore - say no more!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

3 sets of front disks (1 per year).

Rear shock absorbers rattling.

Poor front tyre wear.

Oil leak from rocker gasket- no parts available at dealer to fix.

General comments?

Extraordinarily poor fuel consumption around 18mpg! perhaps 30 on a gentle run.

Dull car, poor quality interior fabric/plastic.

Poor performance even for a MPV.

DULL DULL DULL.

You forgot to mention that the styling is "unconventional" too-the other bits you complain about are serious, but did you ever go outside and look at it??!

I think it runs even a SSangyong Rodius a strong race to "most hideous looking car in history, ever".

Looking at it makes you feel the same as finding half a slug in the apple you have half eaten.

What were the design committee on? Ajax?!

The 2.0l version not only has high fuel consumption, which is hardly surprising in a petrol vehicle is this size, but it's high CO2 output means it has a high vehicle road tax band in the UK and will be hit very hard by the forthcoming increases planned for 2010/11. The 1.6 l version is only a little better but will escape the really high UK road tax.
