Known issues for this car

Before you buy this car

From the generation guide

1. Push down on each corner of the van, then drive over bumps. Knocking, a bouncy ride or uneven tyre wear means worn shock absorbers or springs.
2. Look through the wheels at the brake discs. Deep lips, cracks or pads near the wear limit mean a brake job is due. On the test drive, brake hard from about 50 km/h. A soft pedal or pulling to one side is a bad result.
3. Park over a clean sheet and check the engine and gearbox for oil after the test drive. Fresh drips or a low level mean seal work.
4. Switch on every light: low beam, high beam, rear lights and the number-plate lamp. Dark or flickering lamps mean bulb or wiring work.
