Almost 5 months after selling my e92 330d, I've finally bought a new car!

I was convinced it was always going to be an e92 m3 that my fussy backside would fall in love with but I'm now parting ways with BMW and trying out the Jaguar XFR

E90post has been fantastic, "met" some great folk on here and learned a lot. Will be a shame to give that up but who knows in the future eh!

Thanks to everyone who helped me and contributed to posts

Don't just say

"I'm now parting ways with BMW and trying out the Jaguar XFR"

Lets see what your buying, if you have bought one... I do like the XFR

My Dad has recently gone from an XFR to a 435i and according to him, the BMW is on another level. He also drove my e92 325d whilst owning the XFR and it convinced him to buy a BMW. I don't know how helpful or unhelpful this is for you, but I just thought I'd put it out there.

You will be missed bro.

First set of pics taken from the AT ad will put my own up after I get a chance










First impressions - holy crap! The speed and sound of the V8 are addictive! I'm up at 5am just itching to get back in go for a drive. On start up there's such a satisfying roar as the car revs to 2000rpm.
The interior build and styling is just beautiful - okay slightly cheap in some areas same as with BMW but hey... Can't have it all as they say.

Ride comfort is unbelievable. The steering feedback and responsiveness of the car is fantastic too and overall it's much easier to live with than my old M Sport set up, great for my bad back!

Seats are superb although I still need to find my sweet spot because of all the possible adjustments

Only downside so far is the infotainment system and rear view camera. For a 2010 car they feel horribly dated - pixelated, low resolution, small size, very much like the old idrive system. If I'm being super critical you also have to press a bit too hard on the touchscreen which spoils the quality feel of it all - a bit like with those old tom tom units.

Also loving the blind spot and overtake monitoring system which alerts me on the wing mirrors! Keyless entry and keyless start and alcantara roof lining is great too

So far so good, will update again soon!
