Default New Member from Toronto says Hi

Picked up my '06 3.0 AWD X-Type in July '09. What a ride!

Since driving a 5.7L FBird for 14 yrs.(still looks great but 300,000km. can take it's toll), my wallet says thank you for the great mileage I now enjoy.
Also, my butt says thank you for suspension secord to none (heated seats help; can get cold in Canada this time of year

I'll upload some pics but I think they're too large.

I can't believe the wealth of info. on this site. Might drive the X-Type for 11 years.

welcome to the site 94
I would have thought the handling of the X type with AWD would have been more of a bonus to you?
Having said that my wife raves about her heated seats in the VW Passat and we only got to -18 here, so -30 I'm sure you'd appreciate them even more...lol

Pics?

Heated Seats!! I Think I've touched a sweet spot. I can't wear jeans to work. Woe is me. Even though underground parking;

leather seats
-22
dress pants

not a formula for comfort. No more woe is me
