Ready To Buy A Supercharged 2009 XF

![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I had a 2002 XJ Sport that I drove for 6 years and 160,000 miles that was trouble free. Now I'm getting ready to purchase a 2009 supercharged XF and hoping to have a similar result. The car has about every option you could get on an XF.
In researching the cars, I noticed the a number of people have had problems with the gear selector, but there's been no recall. This and the fact there appears to be a lot of bells and whistles that can break and be expensive to fix troubles me a little.
My problem is I love the appearance and performance of the car and the emotional side of my brain says - "buy it!"
I'm trying to satisfy the rational side of my brain. The car has about a year left on the factory warranty. Are there any other problems with the car I should prepare myself for? Is there a reliable, reasonably priced extended warranty that anybody has purchased?
Thanks,
Chris

Well done. I have the Lunar grey with upgraded wheels. Simply beautiful and it's a refined monster.
One bitch. This is my second one - how come Jaguar can't even get the clock accurate to within 5 minutes a month????? Both of my 2009 XF's lose a minute a week or more.
Freakin' unbelievable.
