The VW Sharan is a monster MPV. Its identical to the Alhambra by SEAT and the Ford Galaxy. Having driven the Galaxy as well as the Sharan, I can vouch for this. Peas in a pod, so buying the Sharan for its superior VW build quality is a waste of money, They are all as badly bolted together as each other. The option of five or seven seats is practical until you wish to remove the two extra seats. Vauxhall had some clever pills before designing the Zafira and its flex seven seating system. Only a dose of Calpol was given to the Sharan seat designers. They are unwieldy and difficult to remove. The drive is actually quite good and the 1.8 turbo engine pulls the massive weight well, but don’t exoect to turn up at Santa Pod and compete on any level. Boot space is restricted with seven seats in place and this for me is the paradox. We will design a car for people who need to transport a large number of people (Usually kids) but there will be no boot space when fully loaded. Perhaps that is what the Roof rack is for. Try reaching the bugger though !
Advantages: Sport kit, alloys, CD player, air con. and Turbo as standard Disadvantages: Extortionate price for tyres as they are reinforced. Only one remote control key issued.
People Carriers: great for transporting kids but poor luggage space.
VWSharan and Ford Galaxy have the same chassis and the same tyres!!
So far have had the Sharan for 8 months and a few faults have emerged.
1.Purchased vehicle from VW dealer who had shipped it in from another branch with log book and service paperwork missing. They then took 6 months to arrive!
2.Insist on seeing car on a sunny day, coz when wet the paintwork looks immaculate and can hide tell tale scratches and small dents. Also when test driving in the rain you are not likely to look under the car when get back to dealer. So, cracked glass in fog lights and missing key for locking wheel nuts can be missed. When you return to dealer to complain, you have to create a scene to get the faults fixed.
3.Front wheel drive, so check for wear and tear on front ...
