This is my first Jaguar and I am totally impressed. Unlike prior models this is superb with respect to interior leg room and head room and the quality is readily apparent. The six speed automatic transmission is seamless. At lower speeds the engine does its task with no apparent effort-- and very quietly. When acceleration is required it is awesome--most likely a consequence of having much less body weight. The exterior and interior color choices are much better than other luxury sedans. In the overall the XJ is a great leap forward for Jaguar.
Love It

I have not had my jag in the shop other than normal services. It has been very dependable and a pleasure to drive. The ride is great with lots of power and it handles like a sports car.
A real improvement

After owning a 99 XJ8 and an 01 XKR, I wanted a different brand of car for my wife. After test driving all models with a bias to NOT buy a Jaguar, I still bought the Jag. THIS CAR IS A VAST IMPROVMENT OVER PAST MODELS and I believe it to be currently the best car on the road. My one complaint is outside appearance. I liked the lower profile Jag. This is taller and more rounded but compensated with better cabin room. Performance is it's strength as it is incredibly more responsive. Test this car and you won't be disappointed.
Very Satisfied

I went from a Carrera Cabrio to this large flagship sedan. I have had no issues and have been very impressed with handling and gas mileage. My '04 XJ8 is high mileage at 64k miles. It is like new, makes an entrance, not just another ordinary Lexus pulling into the office or valet. You do feel like royalty when driving. Style, quality, reliablity, handling, and gas mileage makes a strong package. Would buy again.
More than pleased

Purchased just a few months ago still with new warranty and then CPO with 19,000 miles on it - I am in love. Truly had wanted one for many years but finally took the leap and couldn't be happier. It is the most luxurious sporty car imaginable (and I am very, very familiar with most all of them out there). Quite surprising how much of a savings when purchased 3 years old. It is almost a piece of art in a class by itself. Now I am glad I always wanted one!
