An absolute tank for the money!
Costs
450 miles per tank for a combination of city/highway - gosh!

On the road
Driving
Not the most nimble, but fits through spaces you wouldn't expect it could.
Performance
Accelerates better than expected and is capable of going very fast!
-
Living with it
Reliability
Never failed to start, even after a severe mishap to the front end!
Image
Old man's car, your dad's car, I've heard it all - I prefer the fact that it looks like a unmarked police car.
Comfort
Driver's seat a bit hard to get perfect for tall driver and the rear seats need more room.
-
Security and Service
Security
Alarm and immobiliser fitted, but no scumbag would ever admit to nicking one of these!
Service
Don't dare deal with the manufacturer - I can't afford the neccessary mortgage to buy even Volvo mats.
