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.

Bought this one with low mileage on line. Picked it up and drove 1900 miles getting home. Car drove and handled very well. Has a few quirks to work thru but my overall experience has been pleasant.

Wouldn’t buy another one I’ve had to replace water pump , sensor on a regular, always at the shop. Replaced gear shifter knob wouldn’t turn was stuck in park then stuck in Drive . Fuel pump will go out for sure. This car runs good until something goes wrong which will happen trust me .

This car is fun to drive and a beauty to look at. I waited 15k miles to give you an accruate review of the car. The engine has a nice growl to it and is quick off the mark

After Months of Research I found my Car

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
