I drive an Endeavour (1st Gen.). It's a nice ship but it does have its drawbacks. It has the turning radius of the QE II. It has an abysmal mileage, I average around 8 in the city, with the AC on. The ride in the middle row isn't as comfortable as you'd expect it to be. The steering is very soft and lacks any real sense of directional feedback. On the positives, it's far easier to drive, in the City too, than you might imagine, given the rule of Bangalore roads, the only bigger vehicle is a commuter bus and they can be bullied in to line as well, wonderful driving position, very comfortable up front and the sense (even if it is a false one) of security. I understand that a lot of the shortcomings have been addressed in the 2nd Gen Endeavour which I haven't yet driven.
