I own one of these ... almost exactly the same spec as in the review. But with LPG. It costs peanuts to run and it is like a donkey. Very flexible, extremely practical, those rear hinging doors are pretty but .... well, like Bob said .... sliding doors are king! I like it day to day, I enjoy it ... but I don't love it

Thank You Bob for yet another honest informative review. Maybe somehow in the future we can see what the car looks like with a quick once around view. I owned a suicide door car. '63 Lincoln and I use to think the suicide door meant if you tried to jump out the door would prevent that and be in your way when you jump. Oh to be 23 again.

I'm surprised you haven't mentioned the B-Max at all, which is the newest and maybe the most important competitor for this car. As far as I know, it's the only car in this class with sliding back doors, and certainly the only one without a B pillar which is awesome

He'll review that one I bet, but I don't believe it's come out yet. Each review doesn't normally include comparisons, leaving more time to tell us about the car and it leaves us to make our mind up. It's quite a good idea if you don't like to be told about the cars the reviewers prefer, which quite often isn't the best in the real world.

I've only seen the BMax at shows, the b pillar removal seems to be the best solution at the moment but I haven't used it in the real world neither do we have prices for Ireland yet. It's coming on test before Christmas I expect.

Good review, but are you sure that it didn't have the USB port below the gear lever in the most bottom part of the Flex System? I have checked a Meriva just yesterday and I found a USB port. I will be doing a review of the 2014 Meriva 1.4 Turbo petrol engine one in the next 3 weeks or so. But first the Audi A4 3.0 TFSI and Audi Q7 review will be coming out soon. cheer Bob

the rear doors make it too easy to dent other peoples cars in car parks

Maybe but depends entirely on the human in charge of that door. But in general denting doors in car parks is a growth industry... No sense of.."there is someone's car next to me"

Not directly meant for this presenter, but for almost all. I find them to be very picky in these videos, moaning about the slightest thing 'exaggerating' about bits of plastic, or even how many bloody "cup" holders are in them. How many damn cup holders does someone really need? How many "bottles" do you want to place in a vehicle, unless you are a milk man..🤪.. To me, the most important thing about a vehicle is reliability and comfortable enough. Most of these modern gadgets are not used anyway, just for more cost on repairs 'money making'..and to look like an aircraft cockpit. Oh! Mine did come with a stewardess though..🤣😂

I owned a Meriva B, the most unreliable car I've ever owned. I had the 1.4 turbo petrol 138hp and I was a fantastic engine but the electrics failed far to often.
