First decent drive today.
Initial thoughts.
It’s big, but so easy to place on the road.
Coming from a M sport BMW the ride is a revelation, but it handles and steers so well for a big unit.
A small amount of lag when stepping off and on kick down, but taking it easy at the mo, I’m sure the engine will free up a little in time, but once rolling it has some grunt. Going for the D300 was a good call.
Loving the interior, so pleased I went with black and ivory windsor leather, light headliner, with rough cut walnut finishers. I think it looks blood brilliant. Not a fan of all black interiors aka BMW/Audi.
Tech is impressive, the camera views are amazing, particularly the extended overall view. How is that done?
The only downside at the mo is it looks so shiny, it sticks out as a new car, which leaver me a little paranoid. On that note, I live rural so driveway and gates security has been beefed up including a disklok and other proactive measures……..
Looking forward to building the miles up, holiday road trip in a few week.

No full X-Dynamic HSE specification.
There is even two charge points in the rear console.

I got the same dynamic 3.0 300 bhp in Pangea green in Dec

previously had a 200bhp 90 Hard top

was always impressed with the 200bhp engine, in 300 form its even better, again taking it steady done 2000 miles,

but very powerful when you need it to be
