Looking for owners views on these, didnt even know they existed but they look just what im looking for, practicle, quick, well equipped and reliable.

Not looking at the deisel purely the 2.3t petrol which i believe is the same engine used in the mps cars

I have one.

Nice and comfortable, great motorway cruiser and the MPS engine gives a reassuringly big shove for a heavy car once on boost. Handling is good, reportedly up there with the Cayenne although suspension is firm and can feel a bit crashy at times.

MPG is never going to be amazing - mine returns an average of 20mpg around town.

Do let me know if you have any specific questions.

thanks for the replies guys.

i was just after owners opinions on the car in general, reliability etc etc, im aware the fuel is not going to be great but im coming from a highly modded subaru impreza and a 4.0 jeep grand cherokee so not to worried about this.

was just after something big, comfortable, lots of toys and a bit of go in it when required, and i saw an article on pistonheads about these and didnt know they existed so got me thinking about them.
