Yes - but as I said only one available until October. In fact whilst I was in the showroom I walked next door and saw a fab silver XK - think I'd rather spend the money on that

Oh I agree - the sport is more aimed at competing with the X5/M-Class/XC90 market. the "proper" one is in a league of it's own!
