Have had a bad experience with another marque I am considering buying a California. Conscious that these cars have ben around for a year or so now, does anyone have experience in terms of reliability, niggles or common fixes that I should check for. Granted all will be under warranty but I dont want the hassle factor.

How comes you're on your second California after only 1.5K on the first?

Cheers,

I could be wrong, but i think he ordered his burgundy one, and bought another (black?) second-hand one in the mean time until his was delivered.

I believe some early cars had issues with airbag warning lights, something to do with the wiring loom in the doors for the side airbags...obviously rectified under warranty.

A nice drive with a great engine/gearbox combo, enjoy the test drive(s)
