I like the proportions of the XE, it's fine looking car I think. Far better than Ze German's versions out there.

Still far to new for me, be interesting to see what values will be like in 3 years.

When I was a lad an outside crapper was a luxury.

Hole in the ground is what we had. :)

Nice looking car but don't think I could warrant it, the Jeep may have to go if we get the house we want ( move pending) It is a nice machine but the missus has seen how much fuel I put in it !

Ooh.. I would love the SRT (because V8..) - couldn't find a dealer willing to get one in to test drive, though :(

Is this the one that is roughly the size of Canada?

Not a bad hack the XE, the 2.0 Petrol is very spritely even in the base 200bhp guise.

I didn't like the size/location of the B pillar though and not masses of leg room in the rear.

Fantastic handling car though

I have to agree on this point. The XE is an excellent 'drivers car'. The version I'm using has the 180 BHP derv lump. Acceleration seems the same regardless of how much right foot I use. One inch seems to do the same as foot to the floor.

Ahh diesel. Bags of torque.

Was in a DIY shop yesterday that sold wall tiles the same as your outside toilet wall finish.

Depends on the mode selected (switches below the gear selector), they are also slightly lighter than STEMOs Astra which helps.
