Guys... I'm leaving the Crossfire.. meaning, I've now ordered "another" car, its been superb owning one, BUT my local Mercedes dealer could not get me a good deal for a swap over for a new one in July...

So, now I'm going to have to depart in a few months with my XF which is loaded full of goddies... sad to leave such a great crowd.....

 

Can you take all your goodies out and sell it to us? I'm interested..

 

With all those "goodies", why would you want to swap over.

 

what did you get instead?

 

well it all comes down to the fact that I had an option to keep the car for 12 months or give it back, problem is that my second year payments on the car has increased like crazy, even when the car cost over here in the UK has dropped by nearly £2500 UK pounds, so I've now ordered a brand new Porsche Boxster S which I have to say is amazing to drive.... really sad to do this though.

 

Hard to believe that you have installed all those goodies and paid all that extra money on a "leased" vehicle; money to burn, I guess.

 

Your one of them then

well it had to be done, for all those based in the UK.... prices are a joke for the car, list price dropped on the car, but the payments increased? figure that out. Also, I really do miss new technology, the XF is superb, but it really lacks new technology. I'm going to miss you guys and the car. If anyone want to purchase some of the items on my car, do drop me a email... neil@neilparmar.co.uk

 

Why are your lease payments increasing?

 

another great car....enjoy!

 

Enjoy the Boxster it is a fabulous car... and while we love our Crossfire, we do plan to add the new Boxster S to our growing collection... Road and Track over here tried hard to suggest that the new Corvette was a better car... we tried both and the Boxster won hands down.. however at $51k against $30k for the Crossfire, its a big leap.
