Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Fantastic. I have lowered mine because before it was a bit like a bardge, but now it grips and stays very tight. Engine is loveley and revvy. revs all the way to 7,000rpm without a proble. Not the fastes thing off the line. Mine does 0-60 in about 7.9 secs, but it does have a few performance mods. Cat back exhaust and cold air induction kit are a good mod, make a hell of a difference!
What's it like to park?
Big, its really long, but the more skilled driver should not find it a problem ;-)

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nope, the only problem with it is the HLA's (tappets) they can be a bit noisey but most mx-6's are like this, or so I have herd.
What's most practical about your car?
It has plenty of space, I have used it to move flat twice, it just swollows the luggage!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Blue/gray Leather is really comfortable and looks really good. Sun roof is nice and big too!
