3. The fact that it is non mainstream.

Dislikes. frown

1. The A pillar blind spot.
2. No RDS radio.

Like
Its unusual.
Comfort
Handling not bad for such a big car.
Engine 6.2 LS3
Way fewer faults then my old Ro.
People let you out at junctions.
Cheap servicing.
Absolute bargain when I bought it new in Sept.
Performance.

Dislike
Blue tooth system its rubbish.
No post code function on Sat Nav
Thirstier then my old Ro.
Too quiet in std form.
More plasticky inside than my old Ro.


All in all I love it to bits.
Can't wait to modify it

As above absolute bargain when bought new in September.

Dislikes
No RDS radio
Horrible rattly gearbox and clanky driveline
Nothing else
Avoided the sat nav this time as from experience it is a fifteen hundred quid piece of sh**e.
