I'm not trying to recommend it - I think their's has had a snag or two.

May not have any french electronics or a BSI, but condensing boilers can be fickle things. (My bro calls them temporary boilers).

Thought it had self levelling suspension like a big Citroen does?

The front wheels go into the arch while the back wheels trail. Perhaps *too* self levelling?

Citroens take ramps with ease.
