What's it like to drive?

Its a pleasure to drive now as it was twelve years ago. a lovely noise from the V6 engine. its quiet and comfortable, but has the power when overtaking is required or powering up hills. it pulls from 1000revs in each gear, can change up at 1600revs and it pulls in the next gear.

What's it like to park?

The rear spoiler makes judging the rear view better, but for a big car, its very easy to park.

Have you had any problems with the car?

A faulty gear box sensor, and a faulty oxygen sensor, are the only things to have caused trouble. it needs a radiator every few years, but its easily replaced.

It has a good sized boot, and its very comfortable for 4 adults travelling long distances.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The dimming rear view mirror or heated seats.
