I have one, a black 2016 XJR, and it is absolutely a monster. Though it doesn’t have the wood paneled interior nor any exterior chrome detailing. All replaced with “black gloss”. 🤦‍♀️ This was not one of Jaguar’s better decisions. And I intend to remedy it.

(quite melodramatic 😉) that’s when my bristling at the upkeep is …mostly.. soothed. Its more relationship than ownership.

Incredibly, Jaguar no longer produce a single saloon. This XJ, the XF and the XE are all discontinued. The new all electric XJ seems to have been delayed or cancelled. According to the dealer I spoke to, you have the choice of three different SUVs and the soon-to be-phased-out F-Type. It's a bit sad. I think Jaguar have dropped the ball with their transition to electric. Used saloons from this era will surely become quite desirable.

Tbh it took me a few years to love the back end of the XJ, and as a lifelong Jag fan I tried. I wanted the front end of the XJ and the rear end of the XF and in 2011-12 I got it. Still, my first Jag was 2008 XF bought in 2017. The back end of the XJ finally clicked when I heard Ian Callum's description as like cats claw marks. I was sold and a couple of days ago bought a late 2012 XJ portfolio 3.0ltr supercharged with only 16000 miles on it.

Not just that, if they truly wanted to destroy evidence for the sake of continuity, they could have blurred it out much worse so you couldn't even tell where the hour and minute hand are located at in the watch (it's honestly not even that hard to see what time it is just by looking at his watch, which by the way, had complete continuity throughout the entire video).
