  • Economy

    Value

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not cheap, but is is a JAG! Better value than all those boring German cars!

    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Tyres all round for under £700 if you shop round, service only hurts a little every 3 years.

    Driving

    GREAT! But watch out in the wet!

    Performance

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Very fast. At all speeds, that 4 litre V8 has power to spare.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Better than I thought it might be. No problems so far.

    Unless you want to spend over twice the price for an ASTON, it gets no better than this.

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Superb in the front, bit tight in the back!
