"Extremely confidence inspiring cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cracked waterhoses replaced at 100000km service.

Very comfortable and stable at high speeds.
Quicker steering and better roadholding than newer C5 replacement.
Not the mosr powerful of cars, but mid range torque V good.
