Living with it
Reliability
Mechanically reliable but air con pipe replaced on warranty, and rear shock absorber at only 30 k miles. Rear parking sensors only work properly when I detach the ball of the tow bar.
Comfort
Very comfortable for me at 6' 3"" but my wife is a foot shorter and it's hard to get a good driving position. Good in back -individual seats. Seating arrangement very versatile but irritatingly necessary to tip up middle seat before removing rear ones.
