One of our local guys has just bought an ex Addidon Lee Galaxy. I wonder if they treat their vehicles better than the drivers? He said its a peach. Late 2009 90k+ miles but FSH and he claims to have paid IRO £7500! |

Quote: I think it is the access to the rear seats You could be right. Don't think its a problem around here cos there are some of the previous model ones still going around along with Alhambra's and Sharan's |

It does amaze me that some LO's think they know more about vehicle safety than bona fide car manufacturers that sell 000's of the things!

I drive a 55 plate auto. It's a real nice drive. No issues with plating them, Zafira or Sharrons up here. I prefer it to the '07 plate transit that I have some nights. |

I had my Sharan converted to a solid flywheel and clutch for under £500 a couple of years ago. No flywheel required next time so should be considerably cheaper. |
