Overall reliability
Superb town car, the quick shift gearbox is a marvel , 76k and purrs
A wonderful motor, reliable,sound and does what it states on the box.
Has run from new on Shell V Power,consistently providing 55mpg on town runs, gives 60 on long runs.
The gearbox is wonderful, robotic changes, you could not change gear so precise doing it manually, the big advantage is you don’t loose 20% fuel efficiency as with a torque converter.
Little things fail, ie headlamp bulbs, However have had it 10yrs and will run it till it drops.
