The Scorpio was great, very comfortable leather seats for long journeys. A lot of people I know never found the Scorpio attractive (funny backside !), but I liked it ! We have an X-Type at the moment. Spain sounds fun, are you driving through France or taking the ferry over to Spain. We drove down to Italy for three weeks, one of our best holidays. We went on the Jaguar Factory Tour a few months ago, have you been? Its definitely worth doing.
