Hi if its a 2.5 or 3.0 sport It would be AWD I dont think they made any others and I dont think they make AWD Diesels either Im new to X Types but this is my belief. Hope it helps.

Hi there, have just put the deposite on my first. what i found out is that pre 2003 all were 4wd with a viscous lsd, affter that the lsd was changed (so if you had an old and now a new it'll feel a little different or visa versa). The 2.5 and 3.0 were all 4wd the diesiel were not, and i dont think the 2.0 were so had better fule eco but am unsure. Hopefully this helps a tad.

Okay i must admit i thought this earlier and felt it un-jaglike to say but ... find some mud rev and drop the clutch with traction off (less effective if auto), get out, see if the rear has a mud splater like the front and if it sprayed up the back. I know, childish and silly, but free and will work.

thanks for the advice,its a 2004 2.5 v6 sport.i was verry clever and rung the dealers it was registerd new from and they confirmed its a AWD.im a right miss marple!

now that was very sensible thinking, probably just the newer trans box mis led you. hope you enjoy it
