That's probably me that you are referring to. Yes, we have 3 in the family, one V6 & two 4-cyl, two of them with over 200,000 km on the clock. I wouldn't have a Diesel (any brand) as a gift.

I am in the trade (repairs & parts) & most of the dramas we see with Captivas are with the early ones, Series IIs are a much superior car (as it is with many brands I guess).

There are far worse cars on the market than Captivas, where do I start ?
