Was it manual?
No, Auto, it was an XF Prestige 2.0D which is the base model I think.

Doesn't every single auto light system do this?
Remote preheating - still can't help but feel a bit smug stepping out of the front door and driving off straight away while the neighbours are all scraping off the ice.
Speed limiter - a godsend in the endless 50mph average speed limit on the M6
And one that my old civic had, but my current car doesn't (and I don't think many do ): rear seats which fold up, giving a really practical space in the back for transporting things upright, e.G. TVs, bikes, etc
Gobsmacked at the number of people mentioning heated seats, I can't stand them. I drive hundreds of different cars through work and they are the first thing I turn off if they've been left switched on. That warm feeling like I've wet myself isn't pleasant at all.
My car has very few modern gizmos but the auto hold handbrake in the wifes Tiguan is pretty useful.

I'm surprised more cars don't have heads up displays
Interesting thread. I wonder where things will go next seeing as I've had most of the above for over a decade in one form or another
Personal fav, small but great
- Clip on the windscreen for parking tickets, not seen many cars outside of Volvo that have these, so handy
