  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Second hand you get a lot of car for your money. Built to last for ever. Just feel the weight of the doors!

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Only had to buy one bulb in the 7 months I've had it, but I suspect that servicing will not be cheap. Not too good on fuel but it is a big car and an auto so no suprises there.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Smooth and comfortable, but handling not up to BMW standards. Engine a bit harsh when pushed hard.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good for a car of its size. Wish I'd gone for the 2.4T though.

  • Living with it

    Reliability
