1) It is still as comfortable a ride after 38,000 kms as when purchased 05/08. 2) We have had no problems with it. This vehicle's quality presentation has not been diminished. 3) Our local service Dept contacts us to ensure we don't mess up the service schedual and they are very meticulous and helpful at service time. 4) AWD is great in rain, wind and on Qld roads -(just back from Townsville). 5) Motor provides all the grunt needed on highway and on local roads. 6) I really appreciate this site and the info given even if it doesn't all apply to our situation and seems a little raw at times. 7) Finally, SWMBO loves the vehicle even more than the first time she drove it and felt a touch of heaven.
