The thought of travelling to Germany to buy a Crossfire sounds pretty cool. Congrats on your first post.

I have been in Germany & Austria for 2 weeks now & have just seen 1 Crossfire. They seem pretty rare here to me. Lots of Porches, that might not have been a big deal to him.

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

Here in my part of the UK and in fact all over they are very few and far between which is why I love it so much. Porche ten to the dozen, Mercs, BMWZ4, Mazda RX8 Nissan bla bla bla see them all day everyday. Had XF for 4 months and dont think I could count the number of others seen on one hand that includes travelling the width of the country.

Went to Tenby the other week (South Wales 600 mile round trip) and some guy followed me to my parking space and stopped just to ask if he could see the car and pop the bonnet he was made up when I said ok (just to show her off a bit)!!! most people seem to be amazed by it and it seems exclusive and expensive to them. Needless to say I never told him it was worth less than their new Ford Focus!!

Can help you with translation in German if you want

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

Its definately brand new I got that bit the rest is fairly standard stuff on any site. Only prob is that we are right hand drive so its useless for me! Here in the UK if I found one though I would be all over it like a rash on a ho!!

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

It is great to get Crossfire information from our European counterparts. Thank you Road King and Trimmy for you news on the Xfire, we can all just hope, some day soon the value of our cars will start to go up
I am certain they will, just not sure when. Thank you both, once more for your imput, keep up the good work.
PS Road King your english is fine and spelling just as good as some US xfire owners on the forum:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

I bought mine for the same reason. Great car, loads of bang for your buck, exclusivity etc.. Five months on and somebody else from work has bought an SRT-6. I often drive half the width of the country and never see another one.

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

Do the european cars have a rear foglight?
As i noticed theres an extra detent and indicator space on the light switch

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

I believe so yes its a requirement for the MOT.

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

You can blame/thank Jeremy Clarkson for th lack of Crossfire's in Europe. Most people in America don't watch top gear.

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

Yes they do, as per Trimmy, its a legal requirement. You turn the knob to switch on the front fog lights then pull the knob out to turn on the rear.

Anybody who takes advice from him needs their head testing. He doesn't even know the difference between a Turbo charger and a Super charger let alone how they work. He's nothing more than a poorly dressed but great entertainer.

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

you need to find me a set of euro tail lights
pretty please

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

Keep your eye on Ebay mate. Breakers often put parts on there, but you being in the US will need to search Ebay worldwide.

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

i do normally, its just incredibly hard to find parts for these cars... anywhere

Re: Crossfires in Europe
 

Could someone tell me what the purpose for the rear fog light is. Is it a driving light to be used in fog while going forward that provides better visibility to those behind you? Alternatively, is it for backing-up with a cutting amber glow? Alternatively, is it a down-directed light to cut under the fog? And why, if anything other than the first, is there a law requiring such a thing?
