General Comments:

Spacious, comfortable and powerful family estate that can take the entire family wherever you want to go. Tons of room in the boxy boot, and easily pulls heavy trailers – just remember to shift into manual mode when hauling heavy loads to avoid overheating the transmission. AWD performs fairly well in winter and the timed heater is great – as long as you remember to turn it on.

Compared to our new car it feels a bit dated, but considering its introduction was way back in 1998 (in the form of the S80) it holds up remarkably well.
