#1 of 3 Why drive a CV/GM these days? by gerry100 Apr 20, 2009 (3:28 pm)
I'm about to takeover my Dad's 05 CV and was thinking of all the positives. Newly unemployed ex "big shot", I'm selling my 07 BMW to make this move. One of the reasons is simplicity and upkeep. The bimmer is more complex than a 747 and the potential future maintenance cost is daunting. Any other reasons? Please chime in? Replies to this message: euphonium (Apr 21, 2009 9:28 am)

Replying to: gerry100 (Apr 20, 2009 3:28 pm) bimmer is more complex than a 747 and the potential future maintenance cost is daunting. You are lucky Daddy didn't leave you an Audi A8. Compare the cost of different parts i.e. rotors, starter, alternator, & A/C components. Curious - does the CV have dual exhaust? If so, it may have the Touring Package.

It's an LX with no options. So no touring package. Another thing I like is that it seems to have as much room (interior plus trunk) as one of the smaller crossovers.
