Default I'm Back!

Hello all I have been away for a few years! I had one of the first XF when they first came out and loved it! Loads of attention from people not knowing what it was.
On Sunday I will be collecting a 2006 SRT-6 and I cannot wait! I drove one earlier this year and I was very impressed, It also seems 400hp is a realistic target
I would love to hear from other owners in particular anyone UK based who has the SRT.

I feel I must elaborate on being "away" I mean away from crossfire ownership and not inside LOL
Anyone had a go at increasing the performance of the SRT?

Welcome Back! You will love the SRT6.
I was bouncing around all of the forums and figured I would point you in the right direction....go check out the SRT6 section. Lots of performance info there and still growing. You will love it!

Cheers,
KrzyFast

Hi Lee,
not too far away from me in Lichfield. I am also starting to think about an SRT, the credit crunch is reducing the cost of more expensive motors, and I'm getting ready for more BHP !

If you have any pictures of your SRT why not submit them for our proposed calendar ( see other thread). Hope to meet up in the future,

Paul

Well I have it!!

Just driven back (70 miles) and what can I say the SRT's are mental! I could not stop smiling!

What an underrated car this is! I should have had to pay double for the same performance/exclusivity. The credit crunch is not all bad!!

Welcome back!
The CROSSFIRE just gets into your blood some how?
You really went a step to a SRT & will really enjoy having
a CROSSFIRE again.
Is is the car you can really use the forum to up the HP.
Good luck & post some pics.

Hello all just a quickie! as the car is still under warranty for another year or so I am currently going over it with a "fine tooth" I have noticed some corrosion on the alloys and wondered if it was a known issue? Just wondered if I would have to battle with the stealers to get them sorted.

Ta in advance!
