Still I love my XF and I had to have it .. you all enjoy you're cheap motors..
By the way GAS is around $10 USD a gallon in the UK .. don't you all complain about the price of GAS either.... amazing for a country that is self sufficient in oil ...
Want to Ouch some more?
Try this simple calculation: $47,317.06 USD for a new xf roadster in the UK' convert it to SGD and I bought my '04 xfire about a year ago in Singapore + parallel overseas import + tax = approximate $210,000,000 + always in love with my xfire.
