I've had a 407 SE 110 HDI for over 2 and a half
years and it's probably the best car I've ever
had. It's economical to run (I really can get
55mpg!), reliable and comfortable. Everyone who
has been in it has been impressed with the
quality and the drive. I haven't had any
problems, electrical or otherwise. Maybe I
bought a rogue "monday" car!
