Congratulations.
Keep in mind - our cars are very sensitive to oil quality, you need to make sure it meets the spec AND to stay on top of oil changes. The manufacturer-recommended oil change interval is absolutely maximum you should go between oil changes, as it designed with reducing lifteme emissions (that count fluid changes) for environmental reasons and not longevity of your engine.
Also, on 2016 with an automatic transmission, it is time for you to think about transmission fluid and filter change.

The V8S was only ever a 'vert, and only ever for the first year or so of production (2013/2014), then it was replaced by the R (both 'vert and coupe).
Which means if it's an S coupe it cannot be a V8 unless someone is playing funny buggers with the badging, such as replacing the front R badge with an S badge, and who in their right mind would do that?
And the same S badge was used for the V8S in all regions.

Maybe the OP on that thread was confused by the 2008 XF SV8, which like the F-Type V8S only lasted for one year before it was replaced by the XFR.
I know I took a while to sort out all this naming malarkey!
