Thanks for checking Peter, appreciate it. Cardiff is my hometown and all my family are still there, played (badly) for St. Josephs for years myself but it's Cardiff Blues for me... though my English team has been Northampton for the past 15 or so years. Simon

Thanks for the tennis ball tip - i'll give that a go. I'll double check when I pick it up but either way it's not going to change my mind... will just be more selective about parking spaces! No offence taken whatsoever... i'm Welsh but just live in the East Midlands so am used to a lot of banter... especially around six nations time! Simon

Hi Trevor, I had assumed it would have the front sensors too... it was only after i'd taken it out for a drive and placed the deposit and driving home did I realise that i'd forgotten to ask. It has the rear sensors but not the front apparently... Hey ho! i'll just turn the sound system up when parking so as not to hear the 'crunch'! Thanks for the welcome Simon

Good Morning All, I've joined the forum last night having spent quite a lot of time reviewing various topics and discussions. I must say i've found the site incredibly helpful and has certainly helped in my decision to p/x my RR Sport and buy an XF D S Portfolio '12 plate. All things being well I take delivery on Saturday and am looking forward to an exciting, comfortable and certainly less expensive driving and running costs experience! I must admit I have concerns around winter driving having switched from a 4x4 but that's only a couple of weeks of the year! My XF doesn't have front parking sensors (forgot to check when I bought) so am also a little concerned about the limited visibility over the 'bulge'! This doesn't temper my excitement though! Simon
