Check my other post, but I made this change this week. Previous car was XF 4.2 litre. Wonderful car, but very expensive to run. Three days with my F Sport and apart from sheer accelleration ( hardly ever indulged in in the Jag as it reduces already poor MPG even further ) the Lexus is at least as good as the Jag. The XF came with a lot of kit, but the F Sport has voice command, fogs, DAB radio, heated and cooled seats ( once you opt for leather ) front parking sensors and other kit that I had to pay extra for even on the 4.2 XF. As our Amercian friends say, what's not to like?

I've had an F Sport since Wednesday and on first 350 miles, mixed town driving and 180 miles of motorway, I'm averaging 43 MPG to date. Seeing as I've 'traded down' from a Jag XF 4.2 this is a fantastic result for me, of course. The guy who says he got just 35 must have been trouncing it in sport mode. So far I'm delighted with the car. Having owned three XJs before the XF I can say that this Lexus bears comparison to the more pricey Jags in everything, plus is much cheaper to run and to tax. Then 'whine' issue is in the ear of the beholder. I find the engine noise ( when there is any at all to bother you ) very pleasant.
