• Summary

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What does this car say about you?

    sensible and sporty

    What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

    much admired, like the flame red pearlescent

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    yes, maybe a 4.3 litre although the 3.0 litre is relatively fast 0-60 8 secs. My GS has been utterly reliable, handles the corners very well considering its Sports Suspension and standard 245 and 18 inch wheels/tyres. It can give a smooth relaxing ride and when needed and in sports mode can be quite powerful for such a big car

    What are you likely to buy next?

    maybe a Jag but more likely the new GS (2005)
