Question A109S GRAND feedback

Hello there

I am a corporate pilot, flying an EC 135 T2+ in France. We have no engineer in the company, and the 135 has proven to be very reliable. It is very nice to fly, and I appreciate the "avionique nouvelle", really ideal for SPIFR.
But my boss looks for a helicopter that goes faster and farther, for about the same size...

I have been favourably impressed by the GRAND. It seems to be superior in speed, range, cabine volume and finitions (and aesthetically too, which is more subjective...).
But I would appreciate some feedback about the everyday use of the A109S, in the VIP role... From the pilot's point of view of course, but also the engineers and the passengers!
Thanks for your help!
