Reliability
Minor niggles, like usual air con fan speed (known fault), duff battery and steering rack needed replacing (I hit a rock in the road, 15 minutes after I picked it up).

Real talking point. Everybody says something, it's a proper status symbol.
Comfort
Have sports seats with lumbar support and they are great for long distance travelling.
