Exellent driving experience. Bit underpowered, though.

Needs a bit more power. Gearing wrong on fifth - seems to rev hard on motorways.

Living with it
Reliability
Never let me down.
Image
I think they are one of the best looking 'big' cars on the road, even today.
Comfort
Love the armchair driving position and once you get used to clutch position, it's actually better on the legs in traffic.
