I've owned a number of large saloons over the years, and this car has proved the most relaxing for long-distance trips. It is comfortable and reasonably economical at around 40mpg - but in quoting that figure I'll stress that I don't use the car for short trips, and I don't do much city driving. And it has been remarkably cheap to run. There have been no major failures - it's now at 108,000 miles - and when things have required attention my local garage has fixed them at a reasonable price. My only complaint? Corrosion on the alloy wheels.
