"Excellent performance, comfort and style for very little money"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Starting motor cable became loose.

Both the front and rear windscreen washers are broken. Rear never worked, front broke after 4 months.

Seat heaters do not work.

Rear lamp cluster keeps falling out.

Strange clicking noise from the wheel.

All my coolant keeps disappearing!

General comments?

This car has a really luxurious interior, which is very easy to keep clean. The paint-work is fantastic and all the little extras you get with a GLT really make this a good car.

Fuel economy sucks, especially if you drive with a lead boot as I tend to, or waiting in traffic.

This car was made for the motorway, it loves long journeys. Once it is up to speed it will just cruise regardless of hills!

Handling is fantastic although when wet it under-steers a little on roundabouts.

A really beautiful car.

One tip - Don't drive through the car wash with the radio on! My poor electric aerial, sob!
