The last of the greatest Jaguars. This car still looks gorgeous today

[@extra2743]

Lucky people who got one. They last over 300000 miles and more,if maintained. Thanks

[@extra2743]

Excellent

[@angelquetglas1072]

That has and will be the car I've always wanted

I just a 06 super v8 about a month or 2 ago. It's very fun to drive feels very light on its feet but a bit too floaty for me. I think the stock tire spec are too big. As for maintenance, the guy before me had receipts since he's owned it. The prices looks comparable to a acura tlx v6. The parts are cheap but the labor is expensive

I don’t care what anyone says. This is a baby Bentley. Of it’s vintage. Same leather same wood same woolen floor mats and picnic tables. Good old British luxury from Ford

My lovely ❤ car

[@charlesodendhal6772]

I have seen 347.000 miles and the interior and body were perfect, unfortunately it got totaled. I maintain my own cars, the parts are not too expensive and can be found at salvage.

[@extra2743]

They are going up on price. Thanks

Like the 1990s BMW E38 7 Series. 2005 - 2009 XJs Are the Best Style.

4:26 the perfect size

Cool looking car, but dependability is garbage.

Not these ones. If abused (like all cars) the XJ-350 platform will break down. If the car was properly cared for, the XJ8 will continue to give years of reliable service. My 2005 Vanden Plas has been well maintained and she continues to turn heads and be reliable. In November 2023 I took the car on a 2500 mile trip, not a single hiccup. The 4.2L V8 averaged 25 mpg, with 4 passengers, luggage and a good amount of driving through snow.

stop pretending you know anything about these cars

[@detonator2112]

Not true. They were quite reliable cars under Ford ownership.
