Anybody out there any experience of these?
Considering one to replace my C63 Estate later in the year and would appreciate any feedback.
I know the fuel consumption will be heavy (but I've previously owned 2x 6.2 C63 and a Bentley Arnage so I'm used to being friends with my local petrol station!!), but i'm more interested in reliability etc
Looking forward to any replies

We've had one for just over 6 months and cannot speak highly enough of it.
It's had everything from a lawnmower, 8 rugby tackle pads, an anchor and a large German Shepherd in the back (not all at the same time mind), driven through a number of fields, a small stream and a ditch (that wasn't necessarily intentional....) and then back on the road it bellows and grunts if you prod it but otherwise acts like a civilized grand tourer with a ride that makes many of its competitors seem like supermarket trollies.
It, and the 3l petrol it replaced, has been faultless. Mpg as you are aware is not great, average 18 around town but have got 29 a number of times on longer trips.

Had mine over 12 months 11k miles now and very pleased with it.
It replaced an XFR that I also loved but I wanted the same engine (the 5.0 supercharged V8 is a gem) in something more modern/practical/useable - having 4wd + higher ground clerance helps as well as a big boot.
It's first and foremost a pratical SUV that does the family duty very well. And I think it looks great.
But what makes it special is the way you can fire it down the road and enjoy V8 noise/performance along with great handling when you get the chance.
It's probably more of a car you will be impressed with rather than fall in love with (true of many modern/auto cars) but it does work very well - a nicely rounded package if you can live with the fuel consumption.
