"A classy, comfortable, reliable, car which has all the power and torque that you need"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

No problems until well over the 100,000 km mark.

Problems included a hole in the exhaust manifold (was replaced).

Leak in the power steering, this had to be repaired twice within a year, the garage insisted that it was a different part that went wrong the second time.

Replaced the brake-disks then six months later they had to be re-surfaced.

General comments?

I bought this car in 1994 and still have it after 11 years, what more can I say?

I'm ready to sell it now, as I'm about to retire.

In spite of the Problems, I have loved this car, it's got all the power and comfort that one could ask for.

This car has never let me down.

I agree. Worst problem seems to be with the power steering. After having done 220000kms, the pump is giving me grief. Nice car though.
