I own one just like this one but automatic and 163HP. I've had it for a year and have driven it for over 20,000Km and I must say I can relate to all the positives pointed out in this video. It is an incredibly practical, well made, fairly stylish and engaging to drive car for its class.
@Uncle Gilbert It actually has. It has never let me down. I got it on 184,000km and it is currently on 215,000km. I am really pleased with it and would buy it again no doubt. I would add a sunroof, blind spot monitor , heated seats and sliding doors would be nicer too ( although I do agree the 4 doors give more of a "car" feeling, still sliding would be better imo). Driving experience is great for a car this big. I've got to say I bought it for 8,000€ approx and have invested in it a bit more as part of due and regular maintenance. For instanve in an automatic you have to change the gear oil every 180,000km in the galaxies and also change the belt every 200,000km so that set me back 1,000euros. Thise things as well as the oil change and regular yearly maintenance should never be neglected in any car.
I've been owner of Ford Galaxy 2.0TDCI, It was one of the best cars I did have. Very reliable and good quality. It was big, but drive like a Mondeo. After 9 years and achieving 419.000 km's we sold the car.
I have owned mine for 7 years now got it with 40k on it! Now it has 125k on it so what does that tell you! Unbelievable car and will keep it as long as possible.
