“The greatest second-hand car on the market, thanks to appalling RVs. Pity, the Phaeton is a good car with decent engines and quality”
Good stuff
Without the Phaeton, we would never have had the Bentley Continental...
Bad stuff
Buy one new, and you'll loose a vast sum of cash when you come to sell on
