Summary
What does this car say about you?
The car portrays a young, professional and classy image which is just right for me. It looks stunning with the 07 Special Edition alloys and Avus silver paint, twin exhausts, leather etc etc.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Everyone thinks that the car is more prestigious and expensive than my old BMW 320D M Sport, which of course it isn't. It gets admiring glances from everyone.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Absolutely
What are you likely to buy next?
Ask me in two years!

Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchise
Did you buy this car new?
Yes
What price did you pay?
£28,000
When did you buy the car?
April 2007
Did you get a good deal and why?
The car is leased and the monthly rentals are very competitive when compared to BMW, Mercedes and Lexus which means I could get more options for less money.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
What was the dealer like?
Excellent so far. The sales team knew everything about the car and kept me up to date throughout the order process. Will wait and see what the aftersales service is like.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
The 2 litre turbo unit covers all the bases. Its fast when pushed through the gears and will keep pulling well beyond legal speeds on the motorway. Its also really torky driving quite like a diesel at times. I dont have the four wheel drive version but the handling is excellent and I dont miss the supposed class leading handling of my old BMW.
What's it like to park?
The Servotronic power steering makes parking effortless. I have rear parking sensors as well which is a bonus when reversing.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No, nothing so far.
What's most practical about your car?
Its got a decent amount of room for two adults and two children in the back. The boot is also a much better shape than my old 04 plate BMW 3 series.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
A toss up between the DVD Sat Nav which is excellent, even recomending alternative routes when there are traffic problems and the bluetooth phone kit with voice control. I wouldn't do without this now.
