Just back from a short test of a 300C 3.0CRD Auto.
Overall, I really want to like the car - the engine and gearbox work well, it's refined, with Jaguar-rivalling ride quality and almost silent at 70mph.
On the other hand, it's a bit 'Dell Boy' in terms of looks and a fair bit of the interior trim wouldn't even be acceptable quality in a Mondeo.
Bit split on this one. It's on the shortlist, but can't see it winning my money.
