Is it road legal, can already see you using your arms to indicate with your leather driving gloves! Pictures would be great if you could, just don't get any of the jeep in them accidentally...

Better speak to wagon_Jo about rides, but i'm first in queue!

Yes i think it has all weather gear.

Just to reiterate, not my car! I am firmly getting my car count under control!

It's a 2012 model I picked up and bought as have opted out of company car, had tight restrictions on want I had to get with mileage and age.

Was going to get c class but decided to get something I can carry four people/kids in etc as going to keep three years and then give to Jo to replace her Jag. Decided on 350 as atlas the I can enjoy a bit of grunt, especially after a remap, 310bhp/750nm of torque.

Was very tempted with an Audi, but wanted auto, after step father having a bad experience with an Audi auto I decided to stay clear.

They're smart looking cars.

Our neighbour has that model/spec, only the estate. Seems like a good mile muncher as he uses it for family trips across Europe and reckons it's as comfy as you could ask for.

It's got some poke too... he was quite surprised when he couldn't keep pace with the Foz, which told a story.

Yeah was looking for estate as prefer look, but couldn't find one in my price with spec, but saloon has massive boot.

Reading a few stories on Internet with people that have remapped them, they apparently can hold off some pretty quick machines, we will see.
