Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Power is delivered throughout the rev range and has good pull even in 6th on the motorway. There isn't much that pulls away from this car. The car is can easily be remapped and gives better power and mpg than the 3.0 v6 cdti. Defiantly the diesel to buy!

Bit tricky to park compared to other vehicles ive owed due to its size but never had any major problems.
