As most have commented, there is plenty to like about the car. I will list some of the things that appeal to me:

Sure-footed handling on tarmac or dirt roads, wet or dry.
Plenty of power for hills or overtaking (D5 twin turbo plus good auto).
Good fuel economy.
Folding external mirrors and the close of windows on locking up.
Bluetooth phone.

But some minor irritations:

Switches are not ergonomically designed. We often inadvertently press the flashing warning lights when retrieving sunglasses from the micro shelf in the dash and also press the fuel lid when attempting to open the power tailgate. The main light switch is invisible when driving so it is best to drive with the lights always on (probably a bit safer, as well).

The rear windscreen badly accumulates dust when driving off the tarmac.
