    Everyone loves it - people always comment how good it looks, especially with the chrome wheels and sideboards - People compare the inside to like being in a private jet

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    Definately - It serves all my needs well - I also love the unique 223 seating arrangement - It provides great access to the back and better comfort from the armchair seeting on the second row. MPG is also reasonable running at around 25mpg. Im looking forward to the new model though which will have the more powerful 3.8 v6.
