2013 Ford Galaxy Titanium 2.0 TDCi from UK and Ireland

Summary:

Spacious family MPV

Faults:

Mostly wear and tear for the usual mechanicals (brakes, suspension), there were never any major problems. A/C was very weak but probably needed re-gassed. Clutch juddered in my last year of ownership but never failed completely. Water pump leaked but changed when cam-belt was changed.

Cosmetically the car was very rough when I got rid of it, paint work was of low quality, rust and peeling and fade just about everywhere.

Interior quality also suspect, low quality plastics broke here and there. Very rough looking. But it did get regular family use.

General Comments:

Very large and spacious family MPV, the Galaxy is ideal for family or taxi use. Great looking in black with windows tints and alloy wheels.

Titanium model had the lot - super comfy leather seats and all electrics. The interior space and features are the reasons you buy cars like this. A joy to be in and drive.

2.0 diesel had great power for its size and did 44 - 50 mpg. Reliable if serviced on time, and paired with a manual gearbox, one of Fords most reliable units. Avoid eco-boost petrol engines or powershift automatics of this time period.

Kids loved the panoramic sunroof!

Ideal family vehicle if you pick the right version for your needs.
