Modified to transport a passenger in a wheelchair, but can be used by anyone. Easy to drive, handles like a small car but has lots of room for moving things. The third row of seats has been removed, as well as the middle seat in the second row, in order to accommodate a wheelchair, which means it is set up like a van. There is a short fold-down ramp at the rear hatch door. Seats 4 people plus wheelchair-passenger. (The floor has been lowered in the central area, from between the back seats to the rear door, so there is enough headroom for a wheelchair-passenger sitting upright.) Radio (Some internal measurements: low-floor area in centre: length 224cm, width 82cm, height 149cm; width between wheel arches: 123cm; width rear left-window to rear right-window: 154cm. Length back seats to rear: 144cm. The two back seats also fold down flat if you remove the headrests. And the two back seats can be easily removed altogether. Rear-door ramp: 120cm long, 78cm wide.)

Easy car to drive and great for moving furniture. Car battery was dead however when we arrived to the car. We were able to jump start the car. I think this may be a re-occurring problem as the jump cables were right on the back seat.
Moved a washing machine. The lowered floor and ramp were really useful
The reason I might rent this car in the future is that it is modified for wheelchairs with access between the rear passenger seats. Otherwise I would always rent the two accessible vehicles from the competition which are a similar price but almost new. The only thing against them that the wheelchair position is right at the back, far away from the driver. Otherwise the car is still dirty (I know it's old, but I'm pretty sure most of the stains on the carpet would come out with a bit of a shampoo). The radio doesn't work. The interior lights don't work, which is pretty bad when you're trying to tie down a wheelchair in the dark at night. The fuel gauge doesn't work, which means you rely on the previous owner to do something sensible. When we got it, the odometer said 19 km. 15 km later, when we filled up, it required $90 worth of fuel- that is, it was almost empty.
