Don't get the X type. It's a Mondeo.
You could get the 'newer' XF model for a bargain.

The X appears to suffer from rusty sills.

The Rolls was my father's car and I keep it in the garage to remember him by.
The Hilux is for towing horseboxes, although it's probably my favourite vehicle right now.

Probably the best place for the Rolls. Those 6.8L engines are a bit thirsty.
