Value
I bought it second hand and offers unbeatable value for what you get, incredible.
Costs
Very thirsty, but then again if you want a reasonably priced performance exec then so be it.

On the road
Driving
Did not buy this to throw around country roads. Reasonable feel to steering and not much bodyroll at the speeds I drive. However, very pleasant car to drive. Don't want to get out once I'm in it.
Performance
Very quick for a large car. Too easy to break the speed limit. Looses traction easily when flooring the pedal, but traction control kicks in. Should have been 4WD rather than all the power through the front wheels.

Living with it
Reliability
Again, not had the car long enough yet to make a judgement.
Image
Did not buy this for image or I'd have bought a 5-series BMW. But I like to be different.
Comfort
When I sat in the driver's seat, that was enough to convince me to buy it. Fantastic seats. Loads of room as I'm over 6'2" and two large teenagers fit in the rear with no complaints. Ergonomically excellent. Hate driving my wife's Clio now.
