"Not much value for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear wheel bearing failed at 140000 kms.
Generator failed at 150000 kms and caused severe secondary damage to the instrument panel.
Exhaust manifold cracked at 152000 kms.

Car is very comfortable to drive and handles good even in snow.
Car is very specious and for hauling goods.
There are too many small electrical and unbelievable mechanical faults on this car.
Quality is poor and the owners cost is high.
