Well first year with this car havent been easy. Lot of electrical problems with it all the time and also water leaks here and there which have been common in this car model. Few modifications have already been made. Adjusted the torsion value of camshaft. Better LRR tires. at the moment fuel consumption at 82 km/h avg speed has droppped to 5,8-5,9 l/100km when I bought the car it was 6,3 l/100km. So fuel consumption is about 8% lower.

In finland taxes insurances and other costs for this big car are high about 5€ per day without driving nothing with it. So I try to use it only when there is need for big car.
