Everything cost a fortune.

Living with it
Reliability
£300+ bill every MOT. Dealerships have an ability to 'find' 'faults' that independants didn't! And as for the (£1,000) 'fire risk' fault 3 days outside of warranty...
Image
Bought new when first launched, so plenty of "nice car" comments at the time.
Comfort
Seats far too soft and un-supportive.
