Hi,
I've enjoyed my X type wagon for 3 years now. No repairs (lucky?). I recived alot of attention at the British Car Festival over the Summer. I understand only 1600 wagons were imported to the States. I have found a black and a lt. blue wagon in my area as well as my BRG. Cheers!

Graham, thanks for telling Gwynne and me. I knew 2011 was a good year, but I didn't know it was that good! Maybe Schwiiing got lost at the festival

and decided never to leave!

James,

You are a victim of forum "infinite scroll". Although you start reading a current thread, "infinite scroll" then continues seemlessly to other relevant threads which can be months or (as in this instance) years old. I loathe this feature and have turned the option off. If you wish to do the same:

1. go to User CP on the black menu bar
2. go to Settings & Options
3. choose Edit Options
4. scroll down to Thread Display Options
5. in Infinite Scroll, click the radio button for Disable Infinite Scroll
