Future: if given the chance would you buy this?

I'm impressed Housey even knows what Sub Focus is.

Meh, it's alright. That silver and wood interior is horrendous though.

Blackhawk47 · 17 Apr 2012 at 23:16

LOL i don't even know what housey is on about...was just flicking through stations.

I'll leave it on bbc radio 5 live next time, or perhaps tune into Hermit FM, which we do have in my area.

I have a suspicion that in 5 years time a 2.2l will be expensive enough to run with fuel rates going the way they are.

You have just shattered the dreams of a certain someone who wants to buy a 535i F10 petrol in a few years.

Long ago in a galaxy far far away, modern dance music was born and that music was called house.....(yes it was, don't argue)

....and my nickname is housey......

Like a bit of dance music me.

Yeah but there's house and then there's what Sub Focus is which is totally different. But seeing as though you are nearly a pensioner

p) I would never have guessed that you were into house/dance. But then I forget I'm nearly 30 so can't exactly talk

Yeah but House > Acid House/Rave > Old School Hardcore > Jungle > Drum & Bass > Rubbish pop infused Drum and Bass/Dumbstep chart fodder. So it's in the same family tree, like a retarded 3rd cousin

Gosh, I hadn't at all considered the future cost of motoring in my future car plans until this thread, whatever am I to do now :eek:

Given that I can't even decide what car to change to next year I have no idea if I would buy a certain car in 5 years time! I do however like the XF, and it is on the list for next year

Aeleys · 18 Apr 2012 at 17:58

C. i don't really like jags, the only one i do like will never be obtainable in my life so i don't care!

My dads jaguar xf. Obviously, being in the family, I would probably get a decent deal.

I just love it...as a cruiser it is probably the best out there without spending even more. 50mpg is the norm on a long journey. Very quiet for a diesel.

If I was given the chance in say 3-5 years, would you A) bite his hand off or B) buy it as a main car and have something fun for weekend or C) buy a different car altogether?

I just love the start up, here is a quick video I made tonight:

I stopped watching after you turned the radio up to 39. Did it get any more interesting?

I also agree with this man.

Janesy B · 18 Apr 2012 at 18:32

I think planning this far ahead is retarded unless you want to buy the newer model of the car you already have, anything can change in between making your mind up and actually purchasing in 5 years time.

Luke · 18 Apr 2012 at 18:48

Dream on, you know when the time comes he's going to part-ex it against a new car. You won't get a look in!

EvilDreams · 18 Apr 2012 at 23:09

In 3-5 years I'd be too worried about the turbo exploding.

Yup, you're a Jag driver

shauncr91 · 19 Apr 2012 at 23:22

I wouldn't in that colour, such an excellent looking car ruined (IMO) by getting it in white, just why? Jag have a great choice of colours for the XF

To be fair, I think white looks great on the XF. Though in my village there is lovely new XFR that looks/sounds out of this world. Paint is like red wine colour. Looks awesome - facelift too I think.
