"A remarkable, economical, long-legged tourer"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The gearbox shed a main shaft cluster retaining bolt. Expensive to repair.

Air-conditioning leak. New drier needed. Not too expensive.

Rear LHS electric window pull down cable snapped. Not yet repaired.

Front LHS hydraulic return pipe perished. Simple to repair with some new pipe.

General comments?

The car is remarkably economical for it's size, returning 30 (ish) mpg around town and 50-55 mpg on a long journey if taken at a gentle pace.

The ride is fabulous, when the suspension is well serviced.

The interior is very well appointed. Electric everything, AC, leather and even an electric arm rest.

Very comfortable and relaxed on a long journey.

The handling, when pushed, is very good for a car of it's size. It belies the low speed plushness.
