Knightrider XF......

[Ashley1111]

What do people think of this which I delivered today?

Its a 3.0D S Portfolio in Metallic Ultimate Black with Warm Charcoal interior
Black Pack
Black Kaliminos alloys
Jet suede roof lining
Piano Black veneer
+ Various other bits & pieces options wise

[Simpo Two]

Looks like a BMW with a touch of Ricer.

[Triple7]

Huge fan, but no. The black pack just doesn't work. :-(

[Ashley1111]

To offset this one was a British Racing Green with Barley and Burr Walnut Premium Luxury which went out a couple of hours later.... :-)

Still not sure of the black pack on the XF, very aggressive looking. The black pack looks great on the XKR though.

I think the black pack looked better on the Rhodium Silver Portfolio S which went out before this one. That had the gunmetal Darc Draco alloys with the polished lip which i also prefer to the gloss black kaliminos.

At the end of the day im just glad that the options exist to tailer the cars to a higher degree than ever before, as that is very much my background....

Without black wheels I think I'd quite like it. Never been keen on black wheels on a black car, it's too much IMO.

Love it, thats a great combination!!!!

[Hammerhead]

Just need Arthur Dent to turn up, feeling a ill. Could do with a splash of colour..

[Huff]

I'm no lover of the XF styling as it is...but that one in particular looks like the bd cross of a Mondeo and something Hyundai and subsequently either:
1. driven into a wall, or
2. inflated to 120psi.

I'm tending toward the puffer-fish aesthetic. Fugu, I'll pass...

Unfortunate reg on that one.

Here's mine after I'd finished cleaning it today.

He actually chose that plate out of our allocation....

Yours looks lovely too, were you tempted with the black pack?

Thanks looks stunning. Jag have definately got it right with the latest XFR.

I bought one of the first MY12 cars and the black pack didn't exist when I ordered it in June. I was going to go for black alloys but after seeing that the Dracos are dark grey and not black I thought the normal Nevis looked good anyway.

It's also important to me to not look too obvious:

That is a smart looking car.
How come if you live on the 'Brookside' estate it still has 4 wheels ?
