Default Just bought the Xf a BIG brother... couldn't be happier!

Well on Thursday I finally did the deed and bought a fantastic 04 Bee. Chap I bought it from was complaining that the weather prevented him from cleaning it as well as he'd have wanted - the truck was spotless, although after the drive from the wilds of Scotland to Essex (via the Yorkshire Dales and Staffs) it was somewhat less than pristine

So on to the details - 04 truck with a # of 0564, with 26,500 kilometers on the odo (roughly 15,500 miles). Comes as a 4x4 with electric 2/4 wheel drive switch as well as electrically moveable pedals, nearly new tyres. The a/c and heating are great and the interior is virtually as new.

The only down-side for me is there is no tonneau cover but in the short term I can live with that...

A pickup truck in GB?

Don't you watch Top Gear?

But a very nice bit, that. Nice!

Nice, it always rains in Scotland, every day so he should have known. I come from England and it rains there most days. Get the cover. LOL
Seriously though, where is that picture taken, it's been raining - again.
