Welcome to drive the debate

Fully loaded with equipment. Big, smooth engine, good gearshift, comfortable seats. Electric seat adjust for best driving position, with memory. Surprising fuel economy on longer runs - 37mpg no problem.

A bit thirsty around town, but good on long runs. Check all ignition coils have been replaced, as original eqpt WILL let you down. Check all electrics before buying.

Best equipped car (for the money) there is. Comfortable, smooth, bags of power for overtaking. Easy to drive smoothly, pulls in any gear. Best car I have ever owned-once electrical gremlins were banished. 5.5 years old - no problems at all for last 2.5 years, seems to be getting better if anything. Can not find anything any better to replace it with so I will keep it for a year or two yet.
