VOLKSWAGEN SHARAN 2.0 TDI SE 140 5dr (2005)

The Volkswagen Sharan - a great, big car!

My Volkwsagen Sharan has been all over the place, we took him round France and the Basque country, he's been from the north to the south of Italy, he's still going strong. Hardly a thing has ever gone wrong with him and he outperforms most cars on the road.

It's a truly massive car, not far off a van really or even a bus! But the VW Sharan still performs. I would hesitate to describe such a giant as 'nippy' but that's the adjective that feels appropriate when I'm behind the wheel. It must be one of the safest things on the road, and that's why I bought it, but considering it's about the size of a Sherman tank I wouldn't fancy the chances of anything that hit it.

The space is another very attractive feature on the VW Sharan. I helped a friend move once and it only took two trips! She doesn't own a lot of stuff but she's not a Tibetan monk or anything. I didn't choose any upgrades so I've got no Bluetooth or anything fancy like that but I can't say I really care. A great car!
