I have an 2,2 d. Superb car. I like it more than the next generation xf and xj.

I have a 2013 3.0d premium luxury model which I have owned for 6 years, but with a Stage 1dyno remap giving 288 bhp and 444 ilb ft torque. The torque is amazing. Its an effortlessly seriously quick car. I agree with most of what you say, but disagree with your criticism of its refinement. In my opinion its superb and on a smooth road surface almost silent. Far quieter in fact than a Tesla that I recently rode in. It has 19 inch wheels which I think are just right. I have fitted 255 40 R 19 100Y Continental Sport Contact 2 tyres running at 2.5 bar pressure front and rear which are slightly wider and larger diameter than stock but improve the look, handling and refinement of the car considerably. Maybe you should try these tyres. They are by far the best tyres I have had on the car. The other thing is that Italian Racing Red looks stunning and really suits the car and makes the usual whites, silvers, greys and blacks of other cars which seem popular volours these days look so drab.

Fantastic score, well justified for a fantastic car.
You mentioned the gear changes are a bit abrupt when the car is in Dynamic mode. That is very true, although it is done that way for better speed (shorter gear changes). It's also nice that the car rev matches on a downshift.
I have the next model of the XF and it has Adaptable Dynamics. That means I can program the car to keep the smoother gear changes when in Dynamic mode. Something to look out for if/when you change.
Beautiful car, health to enjoy.

Thought an s was 275bhp?

Vw Pheotom has similar air vents. I would like a ac button. You can make the screen to stay on audio one not to be the home screen after some time.

Hi. I've tried the VW Phaeton a few times but just doesn't sit well with me.
I've altered the screen to stay on audio but it's annoying that I had to dig around in the options for that!
Thanks for watching....👍

It has problems with the door locks.
