Yes if it was still in production.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Head gasket at 65k, although I put this down to a bad service experience who mis-diagnosed another fault. Avoid any funny-coloured foxes in Enfield...

A superb motorway car, great cruiser, plenty of space for you, your passengers and luggage.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Parking sensor was the best I have ever encountered, with both audible warning and lights on parcel shelf.
