Hey Hamish,
The GT to 3.0RB has been bizarre! When you step out of the lib and back into the foz it feels like someone has robbed you and forced you to in to something VERY cheap! The lib just feels so much more 'up market'!
I'm a huge fan of the 6 speed, but am having trouble with getting 1st gear take offs to be smooth due to the dumb throttle sensing going on.
Also not sure what people are getting economy wise, but the previous owner was getting 12.6 on avg and I'm already managing to keep this happily below 11 in commuting traffic.
I've found a few niggling things to sort out (rattle in one of the speakers, few marks on the leather), but nothing major!

I found the same thing but I went from an early liberty (RS Turbo), to the GT Foz for a couple of years and am now back in the LIberty and love it. They are much more refined that than the GT Fozza's without a doubt.
