For anyone looking for a sporty family car this must be the ultimate.
Performance is superb. 0-60 in 6.7secs, 155mph top speed.

All the extras, traction Control,ABS, Electronic Climate Control,leather/alcantara.

I have owned this car for 2 years and it still amazes me. Comfort is great. Running costs are reasonable for the performance (25mpg)

Servicing is moderate.

Safety is superb,we were side swiped by an artic at 50mph and the car was still driveable an no one hurt at all.


The only downside is tyre wear which is around 12k on the fronts before replacement.
