Anyone got one as I'm thinking of buying one.Are they as good as the reviews ?
They get good reviews?!
Had one as a hire car - it wasn't awful, but it wasn't very good either. Seemed to be built with Vauxhall's "that'll do" policy.
Try to get an extended weekend test drive (or hire one) - some annoyances are not immediately obvious - for example I found the seats were very uncomfortable after an hour or so, despite feeling lovely initially.
I get them as hire cars through work occasionally. Decent engine if a bit thirsty compared to similar by other manufacturers. OK to drive but an extended test drive would be an idea as position and controls are an individual thing.
I wouldn't rule one out if I was buying, but I'd be tempted to see what the same money gets me from Seat, Skoda, Hyundai (based on other hire cars I've had. Committed Skodaphiles here at MCTowers)
