Living with it
Reliability
130k miles and still going strong. Only one major failure, water pump. Suspected over-tight cambelt tension by main agent at last service.
Image
It's had its day. However, I no longer worry about parking it in dodgy areas.
Comfort
Considering the miles, it's still pretty good.

Security and Service
Security
Not so hot by modern standards. Deadlocks work well though.
Service
It's variable. I had 9 good years and then a really crap service when the manager changed.
