Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Lots of space, quite economical diesel. If you buy the Vectru necessarily facelift version, the economic very quickly gets tired. Cruise control - a must. There were no problems in the winter and no rust on the body.
Cons: If the turbine breaks down, it will be expensive and you don't even think to put the turbine without a warranty. I changed 2x in 5 years. It seems that you are driving a big boat, but you get used to it. Front too low, I tore the bumpers several times. And once entering the pit, I cut off the water pump and the second probe.
