It really depends if you like the feel of front wheel drive or not

Have driven well composed FWD cars before, like my old Gen II Laguna. Hoping the Gen III is better. would still prefer RWD, if any did show up at my budget level.

Tested that 2.7 HDi 407 sedan going for $6.5k on trademe... good chassis but the climate control equipment and the engine sounded horrendous. not quite a bargain at first

driving a japanese FWD and a French FWD are worlds apart though. Dad's windom is a landwhale by comparison.

Sounds like a toss up between herpes and the clap!

Drove a few of the XC 70 and XC 90's when looking for a people mover seriously underwhelming slushy sluggish shitters. not worth half what they were asking ,

That will only be because they are auto's!
