Reliability
72k miles and drives as new, lots of elec equip/sensors etc will eventually fail.
Image
Love it or hate it. Not as 'in your face poser' as audi, + not BMW tosser! Choose colour carefully, Red/gold look particularly awful, high gloss/reflective black/dark colours more complimentary to curved styling.
Comfort
Best seats ever! acres of space up front. Good driving position. Adjustable everything.

Security and Service
Security
Standard stuff, immobiliser etc.
Service
Not over the top with customer service, pricey but very quick and efficient at work. Never hidden cost for services/repairs. Dont hassle you to look at new models.
