Main review:
Gorgeous, gorgeous car. Stunning to look at, fantastic interior, handles superbly, amazing stereo, it's very fast and regularly returns more than 40mpg - It was every bit the classy motor I wanted it to be (and the ladies love it!!)... until the windscreen wipers stopped working. After 4000 miles and 20 minutes of solid rain they packed up. I dropped the car off at the dealer to be told that they were aware of the problem and it would be a few days for a new motor. More than 5 weeks later, the part has still not arrived. The problem seems to be thus - The motors pack up, but start working again after 20 minutes. My dealer say they have found a motor that has packed up completely and they have sent it to the the Engineers to use to diagnose the problem. I've been told a few more days... I've got my fingers crossed - it's now been in the garage for 25% of its life. Reliability: 0/10 Practicality: 10/10 Performance: 10/10 Value for money: 5/10
