    To save me watching the whole thing, what figures are wrong and how do you know they're wrong?:)

    Haha no worries!


    Quotes the e350 cdi as 231bhp, its ~265. although granted the older one was something like 230 (e320 though?)

    says the xf-s has a 0-100 of 7.49 seconds, it's 6.4.

    I realise i'm being quite pedantic here, it's mainly the fact about the xf being quoted as a whole second slower by more than one indian review. Jags obviously don't work there!

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    What TestTransmission said, a 10s google revealed that in (some / most / insert more specific knowledge here) areas in India 91 or 93 RON petrol is premium and 95 RON (the minimum RON for sale in the EU) is not even available. The engine map will produce far less power when low octane is fed into the car.
