Red Light
Beware of grumpy auto journalist ratings, just because it doesn't go 300 kmh they call it 'frumpy and dowdy', well the room is waiting for you at Belevue there Bengt.

As for the detentes for the hvac knob, we got used to it.
When you open the tailgate at night, there is no interior light, which makes it awkward to find things, you have to open any of the other doors to get light in there or do as we did, bought one of those LED lamps (at the dollar store of all places) that you click on and voila, we have light and we can find what we need without opening doors.

Green Light
Well, here we are 11 months later, and we are just as impressed as originally stated in our Jan 30 2009 review.
Not a single problem mechanical or otherwise and we have over 20,000Km. Gas millage is about 8L/100Km.

Review:
This UUV has met and surpassed all our expectations, love it and highly recommend it.
Happy motoring.
