Would NOT recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Nothing! Pretty, comfortable seats, good music
Cons: A terrible car! Very capricious, electronics live their own life, flywheel and clutch replaced, injectors rebuilt, turbine changed. Changed the suspension, the half-shaft, the front linkage, the rear. Problems with vacuum tubes, sensors etc. Hard as a carriage, poor optics, poor ground clearance. RUST! Fuel consumption at least 7.5 in mixed mode

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: The engine is powerful and the suspension is quite soft. Trunk big enough for prams and small bike. If the engine is well maintained then the consumption of 5-6l Diesel
Cons: Steering fingers and other suspension changed - but they are stuff.
The weak point is the flywheel and startup problems.
