I have previously posted about my situation -recently ordered a white Move Up which the dealer had in stock and was just waiting for DVLA paperwork to be sorted out, but I was agonising over whether I should place a factory order so that I can get the sound pack.
Well, it's now been taken out of my hands. An issue has arisen with the car I ordered which means it is not as described. I have therefore pulled out of the purchase and have been given my deposit back. So I am free to start again and order a new up (would prob go for tungsten silver, M&M, sound pack, also tempted by sunroof). However, I am taking this opportunity to have another look at what else is out there. I have test drives booked for the new Panda, the Piccanto, and a Hyudai i20. I've already tried a Citigo. That might seem like a random selection, but I'm just looking at cars which can give me what I want for under £10k.
At the momet, the Up is still top of my list. However, there are things about the car which concern me, and so I wanted to ask, those of you who have your Ups, is there anything about the car that you really DON'T like? I know you all love your Ups, so this might be a difficult question, but it would be really useful for anyone considering purchasing! The things I am particularly concerned about (in order of concern!) are:
1) Inability to open the passenger window from the driver's side. I often open the passengerwindow a touch if i don't have the aircon on
2) The lack of central vents on the ventilation system - is this going to make the car difficult to keep cool?
3) I like the black pearl dash but I'm worried about annoying reflections, and whether it will scratch easily and attract dust
4) The parcel shelf not automatically lowering when you close the boot
If anyone has any comments about these things, or anything else that you have found you don't like about the car, that would be very helpful!
