You'd be the baddest gangster. Respect.

You are definitely out of your comfort zone now rude boy, INNIT!

It's probably the height of fashion if you live in Swindon.
That's the problem when you live in the sticks, you have no idea what the wider world thinks.

About as responsive as a super tanker at 2 knots.

Pah, the 9-5 FPT/Aero is not exactly unresponsive. The latest diesel (1.9 one that alfa use as well) is pretty good too, plus the later versions handle a lot better.

Still, I'd go for the XJ - second cars are sooooo cheap in Britain - another NL miracle surely

It could be worse you could have that pimped BMW ouch!

Clarkson said that compared to the competition it looked like "Angelina Jolie in a Wakefield bus queue". I tend to agree.

But Clarkson is a cretin, why would you listen to him.

But I agree your opinion is what counts

Well, that's what counts when it's your money buying it.

Personally, I don't thinks there's much to distinguish it from any of the others on the market as they are all designed around the same criteria - fit 4 adults, an engine & some golf clubs and have a low drag number.

Best looking car of its type on the road, IMHO.

Banging!

You're a pimp and/or a drug dealer aren't you? I knew you weren't getting £500 per day for your crap IT skills.

[sasguru]

Aren't you the quirky one.

Build quality supposed to be good too. Time will tell.

[BlackenedBiker]

That will be my style car.
Still looking for a mid-size practical number. probably a Mazda 6 sport version.
Did test drive a BMW and it was great, but can't stand the naff image.

Good for you. The French have to eat too.

I'm sure on the day or two it all works it will be great.
