On the road
Driving
Hardly 'corners like it's on rails', but does what it says on the tin.
Performance
2.0 petrol performance satisfactory with a manual gearbox. Good motorway cruiser, but acceleration can be sluggish around town.

Living with it
Reliability
Not too bad. Faults so far include alternator failure, heated screen failure, heated seat on driver's side and MAP sensor.
Image
Well, every man and his dog has one, but there must be a good reason for that!
Comfort
Ghia X comfort almost in the same league as Scorpio.
