Pros: The car was purchased with defects. During repairs, I've chiptuned the engine, it raised up power. Dynamics became perceptibly better, a decreased fuel consumption. Then 95000 km without any problems. An excellent driving comfort, equipment (buying choose yourself important), very stable in winter road conditions.
Cons: I can't say anything negative. Do not agree that car steers heavily as said other expert. I'm driving cars from age of 20 practically every day and total number of km travelled is over a million.
