We have created the sign in this front end of that that i think is a lot of character and it comes from the fact that hes quite operates we very domain and real that has increase its size compared to what we used to doing the past but also i think really has a better connection with the headlights the headlamps are also one of our trademarks with the strength of our shapes so they have personality i would say always with these says sharp regard that is that because from set. At. The rear the tail lights are flashing and on the look. At.

Old bull has unveiled the fifth generation of its multifunctional high roof fan the model was developed based on the e. M. P. Two platforms from opals new Parent Company p. S. A. It is nearly identical to the bujold partner and since the embedding go well take that combo life for a little spin. After like contest or much as correct says its a familiar story people fall in love and start a family with a first child everything is wonderful then comes the second child added still very nice then the third child arrives and then you have a problem if you need to go somewhere where do you put the kids only a few cars will accommodate three child seats next to each other. Now there is one more yet the new opel combo life oh youve all been called born like. Oh bull design cues sent this van apart from its platform siblings it has a typical opal grill with a wide chrome windless that link that opel lightning bolt logo in the middle of the headlights. The short wheelbase version is a good four point four meters long while the stretched version reaches four point seventy five meters making room for a third row of seats that turns it into a seven seater. Its wide enough for three child seats in the rear and up front the dash is tidy and modern. Who thought its a mother says there are three sets of easily fix anchors on the back seat but is it really wide enough for the child seats some cars have three easel fictious but not really enough space for the seats to fit next to each other but the combo life does at least if the child seats are enormous models and theres still room for an adult to sit alongside thats plenty of room for this segment but if you want more space youll probably have to buy a bus terminal and if you sit back here you can enjoy this wonderful huge bam aramic roof come. This bar in the middle is a good place to hide candy and then the parents can look forward to the kids smearing here candy over the seats they might. Get.

Thats actually its often not this is the combo life drives like a normal car on the highway it handles well and provides good feedback through the Steering Wheel which he says is always very important its also one of the few cars in this segment with a head up display like. Its a clear panel that pops up over the actual display but its useful for watching your speed or checking drivers assist messages like sign recognition or lane departure warning. You dont have to look anywhere else allowing you to concentrate on the road. The many assistant systems include a front collision Warning System with pedestrian detection Adaptive Cruise control and driver drowsiness alert. Martha says one of the special things about the combo life is its a large number of storage compartments here a compartment there a compartment everywhere a compartment and yet another storage compartment and one more down here hes counted how many stories compartments there really are and written it in his notebook which he put in one of these storage compartment somewhere its not easy oh its up here he found twenty eight storage compartments in the combo life thats quite a lot it can be difficult to keep track of what you put away and where you got mix of about a month before i got. So now its time for my to susan overall impression. I wasnt i think he says all in all he really launched the combo life the design is a matter of taste in it some wont like it but its not for everyone the car is very practical with comfortable seats and has lots of assistance systems on board and havent been available in this segment before overall it offers very good value which should be of particular interest to families with several children.
