I have an 04 Territory and it's great. Plenty of room in the car, big boot (we have the 5 seater). It parks and drives like a car. It tows well and loves highway driving. If we were to get rid of it, it would only be to upgrade to the new diesel model. I doubt I'll ever have another style car.

We took ours to a Ford dealer when we were in the process of buying it to make sure it was mechanically sound. It was a rep's car so we were wary. The ball joints can go and that's expensive, so make sure they've already been done. Ford will also be able to tell you if the recall work has been done too - if it hasn't, they'll do it. Petrol is a bit rough, it's a 75 litre tank and we get about 500 ks of everyday driving out of it.

I can't fault it. There is a stack of them on the road and I know a few people that own one and they love it too. Last service cost me about $300 and tyres cost me $179 each. We've had two carseats in the back with plenty of room remaining and we've had our high chair and three wheeler pram together in the boot with room for more.
