Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Reliable, taking into account difficult conditions under which it has been used since in my possession. Premium car would cost a lot more!
Cons: For the last few months, either the tyres have been vibrating or the cardan has started to vibrate!
But otherwise, looking at the market value (low price), definitely worth it for the car. For the price, leather, climate, heating, cruise, etc...and a very robust rolling (I move through the forest, tow trailers over the allowed 1300kg weight) and with the right tyres, good driveability!
