I bought a new 2011 XF 8 cylinder. Now 45,000 miles, zero issues or repairs. No rattles, adjustments of any kind, the best car I’ve ever owned. Still low miles, but still pretty amazing. I’ve owned many new BMWs, MBZ, Honda, Toyota, etc. and none compare to its reliability. Maybe I just caught a good one, but I thought I would share my experience. Knock on wood :)

I took the car for a spur of the moment road trip 2 days after purchase.I love the way this car hugs the road and makes you feel really involved in sport and dynamic mode. I love the fact that you don't see many on the road. At first glance it looks like a Aston Martin from the rear. I did my homework and compared many other models from BMW, MB,Audi, and Infiniti. nothing compares to the driving experience and looks of this car. Jaguar has really outdone themselves on this one. Away with the old days of Jag and in with the new. I have been treated very well by the dealership and would recommend anyone drive this car before considering another manufacturer. I have fallen in love.

I have had Mercedes, BMW, Lexus, Infiniti and Saab cars over the years owning multiple models in the Mercedes, BMW and Lexus car lines. I never thought I would buy a Jaguar. I had seen some new ads and the cars looked great, but I had heard such bad things about the reliability issues. I try to buy a late model used car because I think it makes good financial sense. I will buy new if I can't find a used car with all of the options I want. While looking at Mercedes I stumbled upon a 2011 XF. Decided to drive it and that was all I needed. Still under factory warranty and has three certified years after that. Love this car, love driving again.

I had heard reviews that Jaguar was terrible at maintenance and actually bought a used one which created all kinds of issues however I liked the new design so I bought a 2011 XF S. I now have over 75000 miles and have NEVER had any issues other then the battery for the fob and brakes wearing out quickly. Maintenance at dealership has been great. This car is not your grandma's jaguar, it's fast, styling is beautiful and the interior is excellent. So, reading the reviews, it's amazing to see a few really got a dog. Must have been the time the builders were out all night drinking. Mine has been the best car I've purchased ever.

Parts are really hard to get from the after market. I own two BMW also the parts are easy to find. Other than that I really love this car. It handles great has all the power you could use in a real world environment. Well made a lot better than older versions. Eats brakes Quickly but that’s not a real problem if you can service your own car. In 37000 miles I’ve had three problems a plastic cooling tube that almost fried the engine. Wasn’t that costly to fix myself. A battery and alternator. Which I would say is nothing but basic things you will encounter with any vehicle.

I have always had this view that Jaguars are for the 'has-beens' and usually is headed to the shop for repairs...but it seems like Jags have had a complete turn around...man, the ride was just awesome....100mph was like butter! This is an undiscovered gem....and I got a great value for money as compared to the Audi and BMW...and E series of Merc...move over guys...the roar is back into the Jag...the styling is cool, sexy and hot...don't mess with this one.

I test drove a 2010 XF about a year ago and it felt solid and drove well. I was impressed. I decided to take out a 4 year lease. Little did I know the problems that await less than a week later. From the check engine light to squeaks and rattles, this car has been a nightmare to own. In the first 2 months it spent 40 days in the shop. It is not "screwed and glued" together well at all. Now after almost a year I can truly say it is the worst car I've ever owned. Jaguar USA was no help. I felt completely helpless after talking to them. The car just sits in the garage, rarely driven because I'm not sure what will break next, additionally, squeaks and rattles still run rampant.

Love this car! Not a fuel efficient car, as I have the premium 2010 5.0 V-8 model. But wow, the power and refinement is top-notch performance and far beyond my 2006 Audi A6 ever delivered. I seldom write feedback, but have to say the Jag is still one of the best looking and uniquely undiscovered cars on the road. If you don't follow the herd, check this offering out. Even now, I am so happy to walk out to my car and "drive". By now, my Audi started to feel "routine". Audi's are great, Jags are unique!
I thought it was a great product!

Bottomline stay away. I got a 2010 Xf Premium with 43k miles from the original owner. It had been under warranty it's whole life. Also, paid for dealership to do an inspection on it and it came back with a clean bill of health. Only 13,000 miles into ownership. TWO Airbag sensors randomly went faulty, cost of repairs $1800. Front suspension is full of cheap rubber bushings that dry out and when they do, the steering wheel shakes. The infotainment screen upfront that controls nearly everything - freezes all the time. Dealer did update and sais nothing is wrong. Reverse camera works when it wants to. Leather dash board is beginning to wealt. A speaker suddenly was blown...all I listen to is NPR at low volumes! There is more things, bottomline - it's one of those cars that things just break without warning. And/or there is something always wrong with it. Stay away from Jaguar. They won't stand behind their product and will charge for things they should cover even when out of warranty. Suchas airbag sensors! They are beautiful cars but so is Lexus. I regret my decision for trying to get something different. Save yourself, don't buy jaguar unless it's under a warranty - and expect for it to be at the shop a lot. Beautiful cars, horrible reliability and use cheap parts where the consumer can't see. Poorly built cars - wrapped in beautiful design. I've had their Loaner and drove the new XE and that car is full of the same issues with backup camera and very cheap plastic interior. I will never buy into Jaguar again as you should not. I never wright reviews, but I am because when I did the research - the internet was full of reviews about how great and reliable they are just like a toyota. I question the credibility of the reviews and just wish I would have read a review like mine to save me from this headache of a car.

100,000 miles on the car, no major issues. A leak in the coolant system fixed locally and a recall. Tons of piwer. I have no interest in all the cars with a 2.0 4'cyl. I got my honking V8 and love it.Very comfy in front, back pretty tight for long ride. Sharp looks outside, beautiful dash layout. Nav system too fussy. No major issues with this car. Been in mountains with snow/ice does fine with anti skid feature. Repairs are expensive, but fortunately are few and far between. Due to mileage I've been looking at a newer car, but most I've seen have interiors either black or grey. Depressing. My interior has shades of brown and tan leather, carbon fiber, wood, chrome it's beautiful. I never did figure out the have system, but don't really need it. Hanging onto my Jag, baby!

At 76300 miles and 6 years into my Jaguar XF 2011 Supercharged, I am now having to replace my fuel injectors on cylinders 2, 4, 6 and 8. Completely unacceptable and more so for a dealer attempting to charge $3200. My first and last Jaguar. Fun as hell to drive...expensive as hell to fix!

150k and still as strong as day 1

I have over 150k in miles aside of electrical issues like the window motor the ECU and a few other annoying issues...the engine and trans on the 4.2 is better than any car I have ever owned.. at 90k I changed the plugs...I do the oil every 10k....upgraded the brakes to vented and slotted rotors and put in a cool air intake. The car sat for about 20 days as I bought a new car and it started right up....no rough idle at 30 degrees...its one of the better small block V8 motors and the 6 speed trans is faultless. The leather seats are high quality as the drivers seat has minimal wear...I mean hardly noticeable and very comfortable still....book values is about 7k, and anyone would be crazy not to buy a luxury V8 for such a low price....I'll probably sell it for 5k and whoever gets it will be a lucky individual. I'm an idiot for buying an extended warranty. There is still 40k left and I have not used it except for roadside assistance....ran out of gas like an idiot. I'd much rather give this car to one of my kids but they all say it's too much of a car for them...gas wise size etc. Anyway I cant speak for the 5.0 engine or the supercharged engine but the base 4.2 is a great motor. I think there is at the very least 75k miles left.....if your thinking of buying a used XF....go for it. The car upon test driving should be immediately responsive with heavy torque and smooth shifting even at 200k...great car...one of the best I have owned...they stopped putting the 4.2 in the xf...guess why...its just a damn reliable motor with an active life of at least 150k and I'm sure much more ahead.

Jaguar should be ashamed. I have only owned high end cars and this car has been a money pit. Car has 45,000 miles and has had to have the following replaced: alternator, water pump and neck; valve gasket; vacuum pump and has had a host of electronic issues. Always babied snd garage kept. Have had $6500 in repairs the last 2 years alone. My family has the same car and has similar problems with it. We will never buy another one which is a shame because the car is do pretty snd we love driving it. Don’t get me wrong. We have always paid $$$$$ for regular servicing but to have these very expensive needless repairs due to cheaply made parts at such low mileage is outrageous. Not to mention it taking two years of continual persistence to get any reasonable reply from the manufacture. Very poor customer service loyalty.

Took delivery of my first XF in 2008, and the second one in 2010 (kicking myself for letting them talk me into replacing the first one). Problems ranged from the mundane (faulty cabin light that would turn on when I make a sharp right-turn), to the comical (door windows that would automatically re-open when you want it closedreminiscent of a Three Stooges show), to the seriously annoying (a creaking sound from the windshield that took several visits to diagnose and eventually fix). By May 2010, I had visited the Rosenthal Jaguar dealership a staggering 21 TIMES for a whole slew of gadget-related or common parts problems! It was so bad that EVERYONE on the Jaguar desk already knew me!
GREAT RIDE

I have a 2003 S Type R jag that has been the greaetest sedan I've ever owned including BMW. This year I looked again at BMW, Mercedes E Class and the Buick Lacrosse... Felt that the Jaq had all of them beat in many areas and so far I am not dissapointed. I think the Buick had the best electronics, lighting, and price...but power and front wheel drive left me cold.
Great car but not reliable so far

3 months in service, 10 days in the dealership. Stalled twice on me with no warning (I had it towed once)- now I hear they have recall for that "Fuel Starvation" issue. Apart from this I had some wind noise that was fixed (moon roof not sealed), stain on the roof cloth, 1 the dealer could not remove, USB key had to reinserted sometimes (loose connection - fixed), preset station on the SAT radio erased (fixed), Blackberry sometimes need to reconnect (not fixed), signal light not returning correctly (fixed)... Other than then when it drives its pretty fast and looks good but all these issues made me loose my appetite for Jags...

I researched just about every luxury in the 50-60K range. MB, BMW, Lexus, and Audi. For me it came down to the Jag and the Audi. When I test drove the Jag it was not like any of the others. To steal a quote from an automotive reviewer, this car is like the beautiful cheerleader with a naughty side. Step on the gas and it just goes, and goes and keeps going. Plus everywhere I go people have to do a double take its such a beautiful car. A word about value...This car has EVERYTHING in it already, its German counterparts should learn a lesson from the Brits. I priced out a BMW and MB that started around 50K, by the time you add all the xtras (just about everything) the car is well over 60
Amazing!!!!!!

I have only had this car for a couple of days, but, thus far, this is just an amazing vehicle. I am coming from a new generation Porsche 911, and I was very concerned about being let down by the performance of the XFR. Well, it is just the opposite. I am enamored with the XFR. This car is fast, handles great, and has so many different personalities depending upon the driving mode, that it simply blows the 911 away. This car will likely be compared with the M5 and the E63 (plus maybe some offerings from Audi). However, this car is in a league of its own. The others may perform better in certain areas, but they just do not come close to being the overall performer that is the XFR.

This is my 5th Jaguar - and I love it. I was a bit hesitant going from an XKR to an XF - but the ride is excellent, great acceleration, and very good handling. I'm very happy with the XF.

I have Had my XFR since may and I love it. I had a 2009 Porsche 4S Previous to the Jag. My Friends thought I was crazy to go from the Porsche to the Jag. I have had no regrets. I had a 2006 CLS AMG 55 which I loved and the Jag is very similar to that car, except the Jag is quicker and more refined all around.
A very fun, stylish, and satisfying car to drive

I bought my 2011 XF Supercharged in June 2011 and I have absolutely no regrets. I have not had to take it in except for its annual checkup at 10K miles - there have been no mechanical or electrical issues at all. It has more power than I can use 99% of the time, and I always look forward to that 1% when I can give her all she has got....which is a lot with that powerhouse 470HP Supercharged V8. I wasn't even going to buy a new car, but when the dealer parked it and kept it running, that purr from the quad exhaust was more temptation then I could shake.

I have been a 'Lexus Guy' for the last several years. After having Audi, BMW, Benz, and Infinity in the family, I was looking for a change. The new XF is truly extraordinary. The feel is luxurious while the performance keeps you glued to your seat. People stop me all the time to take a look at it or just compliment me on the curvaceous styling. As soon as you sit in it, you know from the moment you push the START button that you are in for a truly unique experience. This car is one of the best cars I have ever driven. The affordability factor makes it difficult to justify purchasing and "comparable" vehicle in any luxury line (as if there is anything even remotely comparable out there!)

I was about to order a new 528 BMW I had just driven but decided to drive the XF on a whim. Wow! The quality of the interior, the handling, the sound of the V8 all seemed superior by comparison. The lease numbers were also good. Great car and I have owned all the luxury sedans.
Horrible quality, only exceeded by worse service

UPDATE: Finally got rid of the car!!! Leaks developed in the car (through the windshield). For several months Jaguar kept fixing and replacing many parts of the car - claiming 1 thing after another was leaking (I told them i suspected the windshield, but they said that was not possible). After 6 months of trying to fix the leak, they finally looked at the windshield, and confirmed that the leaks were indeed coming from there. By then the car had gotten so badly damaged due to water, that my insurance company took the car off our hands, and we didn't have to go through the hassle of selling it. During all this time, the dealership provided us with a loaner - initially a lousy, small Hyundai, and then after I made some noise, an equivalent Jag. Often we waited days or weeks to get simple repairs done. They would give me an appointment, and then take 3 days just to take a look at the car, and then wait weeks for parts to arrive. In fact our insurance company had better follow ups with us on the repairs than the dealership did. I finally had to meet with the GM of the dealership to discuss the situation, and even sent them an invoice for MY time lost coming in to the dealership and chasing after them. While we loved driving the Jag, the hassles of owning one were not worth it. We ended up buying a Porsche and a Tesla and it has been an amazing experience - great customer service, and fantastic drives - Porsche better than the Tesla!, though the Tesla has its plusses. OLD REVIEW: We've now owned this car, bought new, for 3.5 yrs, and have under 18,000 miles on it. By now, a significant portion of the car has been replaced by Jag - including several internal lights, the entire fuel system, parts of the audio system, and most recently all the carpeting and even the front seats.....and they're still not done!!! There's still more they need to work on. And even that's not the worst part. What is absolutely the worst is the level of customer service. Take the car in for work, and then I have to follow up for an update. It typically takes 6-8 weeks to get replacement parts, and involves several follow ups. Amazing that they are still in business.

Wow, this is one impressive car. I test drove its competitors, just to compare. Those cars are bland in comparison. This Jag takes luxury and performance to the next level. The interior is paradise. I feel like sleeping there during the night. The exterior is beautiful too. Also, the fuel economy is quite good, in it's class. I love this car. I recommend you to buy this car! You will not be disappointed in any way!

I purchased my 2010 XF Supercharged a year ago with 90k miles (in 2021). I have had this car in the shop for cracked wheels, brakes, blown water pump, 5 coolant leaks, blown fuel pump, rear suspension had to be completely redone. Thus car had no accidents. Now my parking brake sensors are gone, the key fobs (both have broken $1400 to replace at dealer). I just got it out of the shop again and another coolant leak is causing the coolant to drip 1 inch every hour. I have spent more on the car in the shop than what I paid for it. I am so disheartened with this piece of plastic junk. I would never buy another Jag again. Yep it is fast, it only gets about 16 mpg but the fuel Guage is off so you have to plan on getting gas at least 40 miles before it states it is out of gas. I am better off having it fall off a cliff at least when I walk home I won't have anymore stress.

What can I say about the xfr-s the best car I have ever owned just take a drive in that power house and it takes you on a wonderful trip of power comfort and pure ecstasy this car is so reliable it's ridiculous everyone who complains about them obviously had someone who did not take care of the cars and take care of the maintenance like you are supposed to do with luxurious cars like the take care of them and treat them like your baby and they will take care of you

How do I begin?? The first XF the dealer gave me conked out on the Long Island Expressway almost getting me killed. The dealer took it back and gave me a new one. That one has been in the service department five times already. Oh, and I have also had to buy 3 new tires since they don't tell you the 19 inch tires should only be driven on smooth country lanes not city streets. One pothole and you need a new tire. Awful customer service and nasty superiors. Buyer Beware! Stay Away!

I tried BMW 5, Mercedes E, Lexus, and Infinity. All decent cars. Problem is wherever you go there are 20 cars just like yours. Not so with the XH. I love this car, fun to drive, yet nice enough to take out clients. Super sexy styling, not boxy. Definitely not the old boring Jaguar. The startup sequence is fantastic. This is possibly the best car I have ever been in. I would recommend this to anyone tired of the same old same old.

I test drove all the competing vehicles in this class including the A-6 and the BMW 5 series. No other vehicle had the same level of trim, performance and outright fun factor for anything close to the price. In fact, in most instances, the cost was several thousands more. The only drawback is that it does not have a 4-wheel drive option, which can be an issue in the Northeast, especially this past winter. Nevertheless, I would not trade it for any of the 4-wheel drive options out there.

Don't buy Jaguar XF 2010 unless you want to fix brake pads every 10,000 miles at $350.00 and buy new tires at $380.00 each every 10,000 milea. It is a beautiful car but too expensive to maintain.

Have been a BMW owner for 9 years, currently have two, but was looking for something different and fun to drive. This car fit the bill. Welcome back Jaguar. They did a great job with this car. From fit to finish. Looked at MB, Lexus, Audi and infiniti. Best bang for the buck.

I have had several xjr jags in the past and had no issues with any of them out of the ordinary. I just got xf 5.0 super charged 2013 and everyone loves it. I find the exterior stuff clips for s/c etc to be cheap and not very tight. I do love the engine exhaust sound. So far I would buy this car again.

Bought my 2011 Jaguar XF Premium in late February and I already have 11K miles on it. I just can't seem to stop driving this car. Performance is stellar, comfort is better than the competitors in this class. I test drove the 2011 Jaguar XF, the 2011 Mercedes E550, E350, Infinity, Audi A6, BMW 530 and 2011 Ford Taurus SHO and had to go back for another test drive of the XF Premium. The XF Premium really did it for me. I like to think of my Premium as "Beauty and the Beast" beautiful in that it causes Audi, BMW, Infinity and Mercedes drivers to do double-takes, and beastly enough to leave them looking at my tail-pipes while they are doing their double-takes.
New Brakes Every 10k miles

Every since I was a little kid I dreamed of owning a Jaguar. Well that day came true and I can't believe how disappointed I have been with this car. Getting this car may perhaps be the worst decision I have every made! First off... brakes squeak all day long. You know the sound of a crappy old NY cab. Well the cab is more tolerable believe it or not. Then to top it off you'll be dishing out $600 to $1,000 every 10k miles to have them replaced. Also the electronics are a joke. Hard to give specifics because that would take all day. Let's just say... it must be running on an old version of Windows 98. Don't even bother getting satellite radio installed because it will go out every 3 minutes.
Nice looking but awful reliability

I decided to lease this car because of it's sleek looks and nice interior. However, after having this car only a week, the famous Jaguar reliability came through...with less than 500 miles on the odometer, the car conked out in the middle of the Long Island Expressway! Needless to say, I'm lucky to be writing this right now. The car was a complete lemon. The sensor to the fuel pump told it that I had no gas, even though there was almost half a tank so the fuel pump shut down. Absolutely horrible experience...I don't even want to look at another Jag.
Love This Car!

I just leased the 2010 XF luxury in Porcelain with the tan interior. It is gorgeous and I've received a ton of compliments. I had the dealer paint the back bottom bumper piece the same Porcelain color and it looks SWEET! (It comes with that piece unpainted). The XFR is the only model that comes from the factory with it already paint matched. Worth the extra $200. I also got the dealer installed Chrome Package which comes with 18 chrome wheels, Chrome side air vents, chrome rearview mirror covers and dark tinted windows. This makes the car stand out from the pack. CHECK THIS CAR OUT!

This was my first jag. I originally wanted something that could fit 4 comfortably, was unique and fast. Didn’t take long for the XF to come up in my Google search back in 2012. Unfortunately, there was very little history with this model back then but I still took a chance. Here I am 8 years later and I’ve just sold my favorite* car to drive. *but the MOST unreliable. I cannot overstate this. I have never had a car in the shop so much as my Jag. You name it and it broke down; usually at the worst times. If I could extract the unreliable nature from my experience with this car, it would be 5 stars all day long. The performance and handling of this car were second to none. The Supercharged is a BEAST with an elegant look. I can’t tell you how many LOUD egotistical Mustang drivers I left in the dust!! Even the Cobra’s. Didn’t matter if it was off the line or from a 60 mph “start”. There were even some sub Z06 vette’s i saw in the rear view. BUT....sigh... at the end of the day, I finally sold it (yesterday) after far too many breakdowns. The horrible (but laughable) part was within 5 minutes after selling it, the new owner called to ask why the trunk cap had fallen off - I wanted to say it’s because it’s a Jag you idiot - but she’ll figure it out eventually.

The electronics were designed by a cave troll. Here are just a few examples of the insanity. iPod has 4000 songs. Plug it in and control of the unit switches to the touch screen. No alpha search on the touch screen even though the iPod does have search, which you now can't access. Want to hear some ZZ top? Scroll thru the entire catalog 20 songs at a time. Three dealers say, "that's just the way they are." Next, can't use nav while moving, in contrast to most of the competition. But you can check your voice mail messages or scroll thru your iPod on the touch screen going 80 mph. So one is safe and one isn't? And, it wallows like a pig when you flex the suspension. Hate it!

It's hard to decide what's most to like about my XF: the exterior (simply perfect), the interior (expensive leather and wood + high tech toys), or the performance (responsive brakes, easy steering, and TREMENDOUS power). This car is a superbly styled, high performance work of art. Just hope the reliability holds up over the years (so far so good).

Looked at E550, 550i, and M56 before buying the XF. Power is awesome, faster than the factory reported 4.9 to 60. Great design and different from BMW/Merc, really gives a sense of luxury and yet is a total sleeper in performance. My only concern in buying the Jaguar was reliability - no problems to report after a month though so maybe the demons are history. Super smooth ride but also handles well. The hockey puck transmission shifter is really a good idea, takes up a lot less room - why do you need a big stick on an automatic? Navigation and touchscreen are a bit slow and dated, but I don't use them much so not bothersome. No buyers remorse here, I'd buy again and recommend the XF highly.
Buy it, if you can find one!

I have owned many cars in my life from luxury sedans to exotics. This is by far the best balance automobile I have driven. I first tested it on a track w/ professional drivers and was hooked. Jaguar has certainly made a statement about their desire to re-establish themselves as a quality brand. We had a deposit on the Panamera. No way that car is worth 30k more than this. And, the XFR comes fully loaded, no options necessary. I'd put it up against anything up to 120k.
A few nits, but an outstanding car.

I came out of an Infiniti M35x and did extensive research and test drove the competition (E550, 5 series, M37). It wasn't even close. Yeah, the M37 had more technology, but didn't drive as well & had much less power. The BMW is great if I was on a track, but a non- starter if I wanted to be comfortable on long road trips on Wisconsin roads. The E550 had a magnificent interior and ride, but I didn't like the exterior styling. Minutes after taking the M37 for one last test spin, I took the Jag 5.0 out again. It's one of the few cars I've ever driven that got the adrenalin pumping (in Sport Mode). Great performance is on par with anything in its class, and it's much sexier looking.
Love (almost) everything about it

Had car almost 2 mos and so far it's a really great. Styling is equal to or better than any sedan out there (Bentleys, etc. excepted). Also, don't see yourself coming and going like BMW and MB. Engine, transmission and performance are so smooth. Trans in manual mode very quick. Gobs of power. Handles well in normal mode but really need to go to Sport and Dynamic mode to really experience what the car can do. Interior is beautiful and very comfortable and quiet. Some controls and displays rather quirky, like the Navi does not re-calculate route and some controls require too many steps. Otherwise, fantastic car.
Great Car and Fantastic Value....

I have an LR2 coming off lease and was considering the Jag XF, Audi A6, Mercedes E350 and BMW 335 or 5 series as my next car. I also have a 2000 XJ8 so I was a little concerned about build quality and reliability. I ultimately chose the XF because of its unique styling. There are so many BMWs and Mercedes in LA that I wanted something different for my $50k. The XF is definitely a head turner and I love the body styling. Reminds me of the Austin. It also has a well appointed interior with all the bells and whistles you can ask for. I was really turned off by the fact that most of the options I wanted were extra on the BMW. The performance is also amazing and you can really tweak it.
