General Comments

Owned an 850 for 2 years now, bought used for a little under £9500, about the price I would have paid for a new low spec ford fiesta. For that money I got a head turning, motor way storming luxury cruiser of impeccable quality. Just amazing. Get the six speed manual to have real fun (accelerating from 10mph in sixth [with ease]) is just one of its party tricks. Mine has done 133000 miles and theres not a squeak or rattle anywear. If you do motor way miles a lot fuel consumption isnt too bad, in sixth engine is barely turning at 70-80 mph. Get a red one and everyone will think you have spent 50 grand on an italian stallion, get a black one and some ray bans and live in it. Just awesome, cannot fault this car. Power, luxury, exclusivity, practicality and one hell of a grin.
