    Did you get a good deal and why?

    I got as good a deal as anyone can expect from the trade ie. Not great.

    Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

    I`ve always like the aggressive look and styling of these cars. It was a V6.

    What was the dealer like?

    Apart from the usual `drivel` about your trade in car being not worth much or `hard to shift` decent enough. Same old stuff from the trade. I try not to buy from them unless the car i`m after is hard to source.

  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Easy. Quiet, smooth and very comfortable. The V6 offered typical V6 performance, which was adequate but not exactly elecrifying. Still could get you into license losing territory in no time though.

    What's it like to park?

    Easy enough. I park stuff for a living.
