That turning around for a second look at your own car is such a great feeling for us car enthusiasts

[@HighPeakAutos]

Its a must

[@s.kxx1956]

Especially when you notice others looking at it to

[@JoePineappless]

It’s just a stunning looking car

I turn around to look at my 06 Megane too... to check if I left any windows opened.

[@Alanphuphalee]

I once heard someone say "if you don't take a second look back at your car as you walk away, you bought the wrong car"

[@SkyBlueJim222]

I owned two XF's the old 3.0V6 and the 2018 2.0 - I loved the 3.0 and sold the 2.0 within 6 months. I loved the mid range overtaking power of the V6 it was effortless and pulled like a train. Tech was the only thing that let it down as a bit dated.

[@VishalGupta-od5mf]

I reckon this is the best looking car in its class. My neighbour has one and I hope to buy it from him. I love the soft and supple leather seats and dashboard. The performance on tap is ample. It feels special inside which can't be said with the German rivals in its class.

[@steveallin601]

You are correct about the newer model interiors. I've had a 2010 and 2014 XF-S and both were streets ahead of the equivalent newer versions inside. The new design is also less attractive. Seems to me that Jag went mass market with it to attract 5 series owners and it therefore suffered.

[@DynamiteDaveLlewellyn]

I bought the XE R sport 180 as my first ever proper go at a Jag and i know loads slag theas off but i have to say i will be going back for seconds when this one has run its course with me. Prob an XF though Now i have had a little jiggery pockery done to it and an engine and box re-map along with a service is an amazing thing to have done as long as its done by a jag specialist only up to 225 BHP but its that 519 Nm of torque.(out of a 2.0D 4 potter now that is just mental). Economy is a bit better surprising but true unless you lift up its kilt and insert a size 9 Doc martin up its arse then its low 20s. But its a hoot to drive and looks the dogs Dangles' O and the app is the icing on the cake while the other lads at work are scraping the snow and ice off their cars mine has defrosted and is toastie warm MINT.. Cheers Dynamite Dave...

The Jaguar XF of course is a fantastic car with powerful performance - but you need a low mileage as possible model. As leaks and seals perishing - soon develop!! (after 100k miles)

My dad got a 2012 XF-S saloon (all black and nice cream leather) and he is very happy with it. The car has run over 223000 km (over 138000 miles) and still going strong - no reliability issues yet. He previously had many BMW 3 and 5 series, but now he preferes the Jaag! I'm always pretty excited when I'm allowed to drive it. It is a really special car.

[@markw9200]

Great review! As a past owner of the 3.0D saloon, I can agree the costs to maintain are not any higher than anything comparable and they are very reliable and a great drive. Only additional expense you didn't mention that potential purchasers should be aware of is the tendency for the rear discs and pads to need changing around every 25k miles, or sooner if you live in Milton Keynes with all the roundabouts! Go to a specialist rather than a main dealer and save a bundle, still using good quality manufacturer equivalent parts.

[@wanderer7755]

Thanks for the heads up, I am now shopping for one and will ask about this before buying

Re: lack of seat travel. When it reaches it's forward limit, try holding the adjuster knob forward for more than 2 seconds. If it continues it's travel there may be a sensor fault. If it moves for half a second, it's in it's inch-by-inch mode. It's a function to prevent the driver being crushed against the steering wheel. Maybe it's a response to the demo graph of the typical Jag owner? (60+ and portly)

[@MrRicardo11]

Love Jags and I think the older XF looks much better. The New Jags could carry any badge they're getting so anonymous looking. And for the money I'd rather buy a Jag than pay more for a new Ford Fiesta. . Nice car that one you have . 😎

[@JasonRowPhotography]

Partly because of this video, I bought myself an XF Sportbrake. Its a 64 plate , 3l V6 XF S, Portfolio spec and Black Edition. Pretty much identical to the car you have here but in black. The only concession to the black are the chrome Jaguar side details and the rear logo. Its an absolute beast, so thanks for the video.

It depends on the model variant that you buy, veneers are available on most of the trim levels.

I currently have an XF, and love it, having had BMW's in the past, which scared the life out of me with it binging and bonging for the least little thing. And I have only spent on servicing and brakes. The BMW's had sensors replaced and other parts replaced. Much prefer the Jag to drive

Beautiful looking car and on my list. I’m hanging on for twelve months and hopefully pick up one of the new 2021 sport brakes used with the tech upgrade...even more beautiful, especially in grey or electric blue with the black pack and panoramic roof. I also like the fact that although it’s not rare, the Jag just stands out as being a little more exclusive than your Audis and BMWs which are seemingly everywhere.

[@deanhall28]

Owned the same model shown now for a few years and have loved it. No major issues, great form long and short trips etc. Did change the wheels down to the 19" ones to smooth out the ride as the 20" wheels are just too thin and easy to damage. Found all the old wheels were already slightly buckled due to potholes. One massive thing I was surprised you missed was the rear self levelling air suspension. This why it took so long to come out after the saloon as it was redesigned to be a dedicated estate rather than a saloon with a big bum. Did bring me some joy when speaking to guy who just brought a brand new £80k+ BMW 7 series, who was bragging about how it was one of the only cars with air suspension and how he would never go back now. So just lifted the boot cover and told him "yeah its nice, only paid 20k for mine though" ha ha.

[@BeatPoet67]

Jaguar knocked it out of the park with the design of this. The proportions are just about perfect from every angle. Been looking for a nice fast practical car up to 20k. 330d's up to 535d's and now the Jag is starting to nag at me. Bloody cars...

Extremely fair minded review. These were an under rated car when new, as all the sales and marketing middle management took the yawn-tastically predictable 520 touring option ( well to be exact, their fleet manager did) and also the BIK was not as favourable. The newer ingenium engine is excellent, albeit the 2ltr sounds a little “thrashy” at lower speed as perceptively it needs to be worked up the rev range to get a pace on... whereas it’s actually pretty nifty. Lovely looking and has much more road presence and “make your neighbours envious” style that the ubiquitous BMW or incredibly bland “photocopier style” can you really tell the difference Audi A4 or A6.

Very common issue other than failing door locks (two of which were repaired on mine) is a leaking windscreen washer pump which causes major electrical issues by allowing washer fluid to travel by capillary action into the body control module located in the driver's footwell. Always check the multi-plug connectors that plug into this module for signs of corrosion if you're buying a facelifted Mark I XF (late 2011-2015) as it is a common fault and Jaguar has issued a tech bulletin on same. If caught in time, a new washer pump should sort it. Otherwise, it's a replacement module + wiring + re-progamming costs. Jonathan

I bought my first XF S in 2017 and it was written off for me by a driver at a cross junction (I only owned it for 6 months!). Since then, I've gone on to own an A8, IS250, S80, A5...but nothing ever came as close to the XFS. Happy to say I now have an XF S again :D

Definitely a good looking estate and I’d have one except for the miserable towing capacity (and that’s the same for any of the premium estates). Good review as always Matt 👍

Thanks for watching

That Spec is the perfect one, no question

You're absolutely right...Jaguar lost the magic entirely with the subsequent XF and XE; not sure what they were trying to do or if the accountants took control of things.
