Off to look at one of these tomorrow in Taggarts Glasgow.

It's done 15k miles on a 65 reg so is very new. Anything unusual to look out for - I am coming from a 2013 Lexus GS250 but want something a little more economical and with better seats.

Are these reliable - the Lexus has (to a point) been good but not perfect and a surprising amount of rust/corrosion on the underside of the car and some random suspension/trim faults - I have it all fixed up now but haven't a huge degree of confidence in the car so moving on. I am hoping this won't be like that.

I saw the VEA engine thread but the dealer's told me all the relevant recall work has been done and the car's got all the upgraded parts as per their Selekt program.
