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 By now, a significant portion of the car has been replaced by Jag - including several internal lights, the entire fuel system, parts of the audio system, and most recently all the carpeting and even the front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.

I own it and it is immaculate, and no one want to give squak for it so I will sell if the right buyer comes along but will also keep it until I die. PS: It only has 28,000 miles on it, has been maintained with Flow Jaguar Greensboro NC since day one. I just put brand new Pirelli tires on it ($2000). It has 470 HP /w Eaton roots type supercharger (Not Turbo charger)(Factory installed) and will leave you breathless. I will take KBB value for a private sale and Have only rated in a very good condition.

Constantly in need of a repair. Spent thousands of dollars on it. Water pump, fuel pump twice, computer system, trunk release, motor mounts and transmission mounts. And etc. Will never buy another Jaguar again. I had a 03 S Type that was a perfect car this XF has been horrible.
Love This Car

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.
