Well, the unsuitability is a big reason, I have trouble fitting 4 people + 4 bikes + 4 people's gear in the 240D. It loads to the brim and winds up getting 12mpg at 60mph for the entire trip to our destination.

The car has been two weeks in the shop almost, over a CV boot. (another things to add to list: exhaust manifold gasket, rear inner CVs) They couldn't locate an appropriate one. I can take the Element to pretty much any Honda dealer and have it back the same day.
