Review

The car looks fantastic with body coloured wing mirrors and bumpers. The black framed headlights and the redesigned grill look superb, the silver roof bars and the 17" alloys blend together with whatever colour from the range you choose, I choose black and its simply stunning. I am disabled and needed a very comfortable car, with space enough for my kids and my wheelchair and the cee'd delivers it all! At 6.2" I am able in the passenger seat to stretch my legs out fully while still having enough room for an adult behind me in comfort, the adjustible lumbar support is terrific as well. The interior is functional but elegant with a well designed dashboard that even suggests what gear you should be in! It also lets you know which of the kids have not put on their seatbelt, or even which door is open at the moment. The glovebox can be used as a chiller in the summer and you have masses of internal storage space with fantastic hideaway cubbyholes.

Favourite Features

My favourite feature of the cee'd is the Intelligent Stop and Go (ISG) which means that at traffic lights for example, simply put the gears into neutral, take your foot of the clutch and your engine cuts out automatically, saving fuel until you need to move again, then when you do, putting your foot onto the clutch and putting the gear into first restarts the engine!

Suggested Improvements

I simply cannot find any major improvements for the Cee'd SW, making the bluetooth connection to the car could be a little easier laid out for us oldies but I got their in the end and its been a godsend with even being able to play my music playlists from my mobile sd well as make and recieve calls safely.
