Timing chain had gone before I bought the car causing £3000 worth of damage at 69000 miles.
Electric's are the cars real problem
Drivers side door mirror only tilts, does'nt pan.
Heater fan inoperative.
Cruise control failed 5 weeks after buying the car, (common problem)
Treat the headlight wipers with respect, now on No. 3!
O/s/r electric window now failed.
Nearly all the dashboard lights have been replaced, which takes ages.
Brakes could do with being more fade resistant.
Continual small rust spots.
Dreadful CD player which has been professionally rebuilt twice.
A lovely relaxing car to drive, capable of getting from A to B quickly.
Handles very well given size and weight of car.
Wonderful brakes, as long as you don't keep using them - see above.
Leather interior in very good condition, but it's treated regularly.
LCD dash unusual, but excellent at night.
Air conditioning/heating system is great, when the fan works.
Heated front seats are now a necessity for my next car.
Dealers have a well deserved truly awful reputation, I heard that much sarcasm at a main dealer, I complained.
Some parts are expensive, electrical items mainly, but the rest is solid and reasonably reliable and cost effective.
Steady 75 gets 32mpg.
Genuine 152mph 4 door saloon.
Yes, defiantly a very very fast car. With lots of comfort, and a superb dash at night. It should maybe have a warning speed limiter, as I constantly find myself doing over 100mph.
