I've had it eight months and put 12,000 miles on it, so I feel qualified to talk about it now. It is exactly the car I need and I am extremely happy with it. I love the diesel power coupled with economy. I like the equipment level which, while not anything to compare with top of the pile cars, is enough for me. I love the way it drives, and the auto box, now that I know all of it's little foibles. I even love the way it looks, and the colour.
As some of you know, I get bored and change my car quite often, but not this one. I'm going to keep it until it becomes uneconomical to do so.
It really does take me about six months to feel at home with a car, so Jeremy Clarkson's job is safe.
