Pros: Leader in its price category. Very adequate equipment for their money. Drives well, easy to steer and close speeds. Power good, did not lag behind C6 3.0d. Fantastic lights (bixenon) were worth the surcharge. Ergonomic interior layout, everything is handy and easy to use, only useful info appears on the screens and not some nonsense. The car is not big but the shape of the cabin is such that it can be loaded almost everything.
Cons: So far, only the oil is changing, but the flywheel is already making itself known. In addition, there is a small oil leak and the front shock absorbers are wet.
I (187cm) did not like the sitting position. A little too narrow, as well as when climbing in and out, should rub against the awkwardly placed column. Suspension too soft, on larger bumps go to rebound, a lot of swaying.

Pros: Nothing needs to be repaired before 10 years of use. The original battery lasted 12 years. I changed the original bushings after 15 years of use. Easy to maintain as there are no unnecessary extras which often go out of order.
Cons: I've been driving this car for 16 years and for the last five years I've had to repair the rear brake callipers quite often. The end switches in the door locks went out of order and I stayed behind the door.

Pros: Great to drive, mine was Scout version -it was great at countryside and on highway. Powerful engine with rather comfy suspension (compared to other German-engineered vehicles), nice build quality
Cons: Really difficult to repair as most garages doesn´t want vehicles with 4x4, particulate filter and variable geometry turbo in one package. Also, quite expensive parts compared to french cars
