Well, around the start of the year I decided that the mid life crisis was over and maybe I should replace the 3.2 TT.
Fancied an A5 but the trade in was awful.
In May I had another look around, had a pre-launch sneeky look and (short) test drive of the new E Class Merc' prior to its launch. More car for your money than the A5.
Read a newspaper report (Sunday Times?) on the XF and was impressed. Knew it was not the car I wanted though as it had two doors too many for my liking. Nevertheless went to a local showroom just to have a look and dismiss it from my 'wish list'. WRONG!
Came back and 'googled' XF and that it where I found the Forum. Found it to be most useful and without doubt influenced my purchasing decision. Hence the thanks to all those postings.
Ordered on 23 May and on 2 July took delivery of my 3.0D Premium Luxury in Lunar grey, with Dove interior, parking pack, and also had a rear spoiler fitted (as standard on the 'S').
So far really pleased that I have changed Marque's.
