XF as company car

[SWoll]

Evening all.

So I'm going to moving to a new job shortly and yesterday got the company car list through. Expected list of 5 Series, E Class and A6 but to m surprise the XF is on there too.

Model in question is the XF 2.0d R-Sport Auto and I've got to say I'm very tempted. Last 2 cars have been an E250CDi and 520D so fancy a change if I'm honest and after seeing one on the road earlier today and witnessing my 12 year old son's reaction of "You can have one of those? Order it now!" I'm pretty much decided.

I'd just be interested in the experiences of anyone who has the new XF and has maybe moved from one of the German brands. Also I'm looking at adding a few options as below, have I missed anything important?

19" Blade 5 Spoke wheels Gloss Dark Grey
'Black' Pack
Power Folding Mirrors
InControl Touch Pro with Meridian Digital Sound

Thanks all.

Doesn't seem to be any reason not to these days - the new engine has sorted the emissions, so they now match the 520d.

That was always the biggest barrier to a Jag. as a company car.

Indeed, from a BIK standpoint they workout very favourably these days. I should be able to throw the above options on one and It'll still cost me the same per month in tax as a non optioned outgoing model 520D M-Sport and less than the A6 2.0tdi S-line Quattro that's also on the list.
