Detailed review: |
As you can see, we really like this car. We have driven it for 38,000 miles in a little over a year - starting off with a 12,000m trek across the USA, and back. Had only one problem during this 7 week trip - the radio had to be reset after a visit to the dealer. Why were we at the dealer's? For the easily scheduled and promptly done 10,000m (FREE) maintenance check. Since then we have had a power steering pump replaced, and the radio. All free and quick.
We particularly enjoyed cruising at 75mph out west, and still having the easily accessible capacity to accelerate quickly to pass a lumering truck (or BMW!) - up a hill.
We both think the car looks great and our only negative surprise was that our golf clubs would only fit lengthwise in the back.
We do not give full marks for comfort because we believe comfort was sacrificed for the sporty feel (e.g. the cushions in the leather seats are not as soft as others) |
