I went to a JLR dealer in Preston a few years a go with my brother who owned a XF, he went to get it serviced. I love Range Rovers so happily sat in them on the showroom floor and unfortunately was not impressed at all. So, I walked through the glass doors to the Jaguar showroom and looked at this beautiful car called the XJ! I got in and settled into the most comfortable, well fitting machine and fell in love. I did not want to get out! My brother came looking for me and I was in dream mode in 'my' XJ. It was beautiful! It is beautiful and I went off Range Rovers there and then.

[@michaelandrews3251]

Did you buy one ?

[@stevp372]

Funny how a similar thing happened with me. Visited the JLR dealership with a family member to see about the possibility of buying a RR Sport but we both walked out loving the XJR575. Beautiful looking machine, incredibly comfortable and a crazy amount of power for a 4 door saloon at the time. They looked so much cooler than the german counterparts.

When you own a Jaguar you don’t need a Land Rover -

[@davidhills3100]

I had the good fortune to own a Supersport for a while, and it was simply epic. Better-equipped than the R, slightly more pliant ride, slightly more subtle appearance. The looks grew on me more and more over time. Every journey was an occasion and the engine was perfectly happy either cruising gently or ripping your face off. We took it on a tour to Scotland and it was fabulous both at eating distances and blasting down twisty roads with the astonishing engine at full roar. I can confirm getting solidly into the 30s mpg on a long run, or about 5mpg in traffic. Don't sit in traffic. I think this car is a classic and I miss mine every day.

[@AaronRandolphChen]

Personally, I love the styling of the XJ even from the back. Nothing else in this class, has such beautiful lines. Hated the blacked out C-pillar when it was launched, and still think the air vents look like gargoyles in the dashboard, but apart from those minute details, I love the XJ.

[@-A-lm5xb]

I agree on the vents, they're a bit in your face and I think they're the only thing that lets the styling down a little. I much prefer the revolving vents on the XF.

[@arkhsm]

I think painting those C pillars in body colour would complete the car !!

[@felipefernandezlomas6770]

Spectacular review there. A few years ago I almost bought a Merc E-Class because - on paper - it seemed like the best on the Market. However, I felt that I'd always be looking over at a Jag with envy every time one pulled up next to me. Several years on and I'm on my third Jag. No regrets

[@alieman9154]

Thank you for reviewing these! Please continue to review these special Jags! The LEGEND should never die! If we keep talking & driving them!

[@gaborozorai3714]

That rear and the size makes it, for me, the only modern Jag that is imposing. Was very sorry to see the old XJ design gone for good but this has grown on me. The smaller saloons' rears are sort of generic looking.

[@-A-lm5xb]

Don't really agree with that, the rear on the XF (certainly on the earlier models) is a little reminiscent of the Aston Martin DB range. Completely different to the BMWs, Audis, Alfas, and many more that are almost indistinguishable apart from the badge.

[@pegcity4eva]

I wish they just made an updated previous gen one. These always looked weird imo.

[@canto_v12]

I’ve got a plain 3.0 XJL but it’s got the Satin Zebrano wood veneer. The interior flavour is second to none. The luxury experience value is hard to beat, as long as you remember that maintenance costs will always reflect a flagship luxury car no matter your purchase price.

[@howarddavies136]

This has a similar charm to the Maserati quattroporte. It's appeal is in its character as much as its competence. You get the sense there may be a body or two in the boot.

[@SiyathWidyaratne]

Love this car so much! For me, the X351 XJR is the only big saloon I'd consider, and for me a lot of it is the looks (which I'd say is one of the best designs ever made) and the engine, but also the fact that they put the effort in to make it light (for the size). If I ever need more than 2 doors, this is straight where I'm going!

[@bazmina]

I prefer the back from the front. But overall gorgeous. I recall Clarksons race against the sunrise on top gear as my personal favourite memory closely followed by the "yes, but is it a proper jaaaag" that made jaaaags even cooler. Shame jaaag never seemed to realise that could be used as a selling point and have lost their way for me now.

[@drumnbass8]

If I remember correctly on the air suspension there were two options - comfort and sports. I believe you could option either across the range so the car you briefly owned could have had the sports setup, and this one tested could have been optioned with comfort air suspension.

[@truckerallikatuk]

In Jag terminology, the two logos are called the "growler" and the "leaper". And yes, growlers make perfect steering wheel hubs.

[@xavermeier1644]

Sorry, but I think the back of the Jaguar XJ is absolutely gorgeous

I saw one of these beauties parked on a street and fell in love instantly... Now that many new cars are boring and overdesigned with useless shiny bits just to catch the eye... This beauty has grace and style....Even if It was black with all black interior ,. It was all magic. I stopped and took some photos of that beauty... Couldn't stop gazing at it 😁... And I had just bought my first jag a month ago, an all black 🖤 interior F-pace.... When I grew up I was from a poor family, never thought I would ever have a jag and a love for such a car .. well here I am, the " lesser" all black interior is for me just a beautiful black cat 😺

[@zsb707]

F-pace is nice, Cristian, but this XJ is sublime.

[@squre98]

No luxury car comes close to the X351 Jaguar XJ. From its stunning design to the awesome ride & handling balance, it is just an absolute stunner. It has more road presence than even a Bentley Continental or Maybach. Such a shame they ended the XJ 😔.

[@maz500]

A shame they discontinued it, according to the then CEO Ballore, the next gen was cancelled because it was an ICE/EV platform as opposed to EV bespoke. Now that he stepped down and Jaguar are trying to go even more upmarket, there seems to be potential of something of its category

[@sandersson2813]

They're supposedly gunning for Bentley with their relaunch, so might see something impressive . They are going to have to massively improve quality though. I do fear they're going to disappear though.

Go to any Jaguar dealer and it's not full of very obviously rich people, it's mostly middle aged eccentrics, younger casually dressed people, an assortment you wouldn't dream of seeing at a Bentley dealership. I've been a customer for over 10 years. I will not be able to afford their new line.

Honestly what you describe is just so familiar to my XE S, had the V6 and i would casually get 40MPG consistently as the engine would stick at 650 RPM crusing and i just wouldnt use the power, I was even 27 when i got mine and it was a similar story, ex staff owned it AFAIK I just love this generation of jags, These days i just feel "if something went wrong though" they are a reliable car overall, but it does require attention like a luxury car of course, and overall i just want less tech, to the point where im considering getting another one, just to have a specialist strip all the gadgets down and it not be fussed that its missing 80% of the features that it comes with as standard ha.

@@CandyMan2001 Funny story there as when i had the XE S i was sold on that more than the RCF that i was looking at they were about the same price at the time but whilst the engine was lovely, it didnt feel as good as i expected it to, mind you the XE S i got was one where the previous owner ticked all the options except privacy glass and the heated steering wheel and i found that fantastic. Personally im still looking at the oddity of the RC 200t as i eye it up as "not so fast luxury coupe" i have the feeling there is a lot more to that car, and its not the easiest car to source a decent one for a price im willing to pay.

[@-A-lm5xb]

@@A-world-of-My-Own Trouble is it's what sells cars, so you can't really have a luxury brand that doesn't have the gadgets in that you'd find as standard in the average Nissan or Kia. Most of the complaints in the reviews of the XF seemed to be that the interior was dated, and that was mostly aimed at the infotainment system. I'm not a fan of the newer design trend of a large touchscreen that looks as though it's been stuck on as an afterthought, I loved the earlier XF because it was built into the dash, but the latest one has the "floating" screen to accommodate the size of it. Just spoils the whole dash for me.

Loved the XJR575. I've had thoughts about buying a grey XJR and having satin PPF applied to give that matte grey finish of the 575.
