Better than expected
I did not choose this car, its a 57 plate 138 bhp XE diesel, the base model. It came from a deceased family member with under 16.000 miles on it. It is a much better car than expected, it is comfortable, handles and rides very well. On twisty rough back roads its great. Performance is excellent and getting better as more miles are added to it. It was never driven properly before I got it. Its my daily driver that covers around 70 miles per day. There are some down sides, poor fuel consumption around 33-35 mpg, no steering wheel controls for the radio etc, no cruise control which is expensive to add.
