    A lot of car for the money.

    Servicing is good value, but fuel consumption is high.

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    A car like this is always going to be some sort of compromise between comfort and performance, but I think it has it just right.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    The auto box could be better (it is better than the first models - I had a 2001 previously) but still some way to go.

    This is my second X-Type and I cannot fault the reliability.

    5 out of 5 5.0
