The HSE runs a 4.6-litre V8 petrol engine. Fuel use sits in the low teens for mpg in mixed driving. The tank holds 100 litres.
Main services fall every 12 months or 20,000 km. Oil and filter changes form the core of each visit. Brake fluid renews every 24 months. Airbags need replacement at 10 years for fronts and 15 years for sides.
Standard safety kit includes dual front airbags, four-channel ABS disc brakes and electronic traction control. From 1999 models add front side airbags and seatbelt pretensioners with load limiters. Side impact beams and a collapsible steering column are fitted.
Air suspension bags and the compressor age and need checks for leaks or wear. Keep electrics dry and batteries strong to avoid control module faults. Regular fluid changes help the V8 timing chains last.
