S Type to XF

[Poor Pensioner]

Hi, just joined the club after 4 years of never getting round to it.

I have just changed my beloved V6 diesel Stype for a 2013 XF Sportbrake 2.2d. The ride is noticeably harsher and the power unit nowhere near as smooth, but fuel returns are brilliant. Apart from the stop/ start only working once in a blue moon I am learning to live with the difference. Has anyone else had the same issues ?

Welcome to the club, Colin.

I also am a poor pensioner and also am still delighted with my s type diesel, which returned 48 mpg on my return from a week's holiday in Devon.  Such a smooth and quiet ride.

But I am sticking with my car, even though I am enticed somewhat by the XF.

Regards,

Peter.
