When compared to the equivalent 5 series (535d) I couldn't compare to driving experience the XF is superior in every single way, plus exactly works out cheaper if you spec the BMW to the same level of standard kit that comes on the XF. Another great thing about it is the value it holds, roughly £2K better than a 535d which if you spec the Beemer to the same increases that advantage to more like £8K. It was a no brainer.

You get the SV8 over there, go have a go in one and then a 550i, see if your opinion matches my own.
