This is the most underrated Luxury car out there. The experts seem to be biased due to ancient history. When it comes to the essentials of a SPORTY LUXURY CAR, the XJ JAGUAR! Powerful, quick, comfortable ECONOMICAL. I GET 35 Miles per gallon on highway and about 25 to 30 around town. If you want to accelerate quickly you’ve got it. People comment all the time about this beautiful it is. I’ve owned LS Lexus, Mercedes S class, bmw. In certain features each is superior. But overall this has best of the best for exterior, interior beauty with economical powerful performance.

My "Italian Racing Red" auto has been flawless the past 3 yrs with only normal maintenance required. I purchased in Feb 2015 with 15,000 miles on odometer. I have taken meticulous care of this car. If I see or hear any issue, I schedule an appt with my Jaguar dealer. My first year of ownership saw issues with the steering, water pump, electrical and a few other items. All covered under warranty. After all the bugs were shaken out during my first year, I have total confidence that the car is in excellent shape and I am very happy with my purchase. I drove from LI, NY out to Arizona (spent a few months there) and drove back without any issue. Real world MPG going to AZ was 30.5mpg. I now have 48,200 miles on the car and it is out of the "Jaguar Certified" period. In my opinion, you always want a Jaguar dealer to work on the XJ. It was explained that a special set of tools is required for the XJ and that other Jaguar model tools will not work with the XJ. Oil changes, tires and parts are expensive, however the service interval is every 10,000 miles. You are riding in a car that is head turning, comfortable and a pleasure to drive. Update Dec 2019: I have 53,400 miles at this point and out of CPO warranty. The only none-maintenance type item; had my check engine light; needed a oxygen sensor installed by Jag dealer ($700). Still very happy. Update June 2020: Only replaced rear tires (first time) and the auto is running great without any issue(s)! Update December 2021 current mileage 58,000 I was reimbursed 100% by Jaguar for the oxygen sensor replaced earlier and was given a 15 year/150,000mile extended warranty (Jaguar initiative) on all my oxygen sensors. I had a Manifold coolant leak repaired by Jaguar ($1900) & also replaced the front tires (first time) and I had battery replaced by Jaguar (first time; old battery was ok I just wanted it changed because it was over 8 years old), All else is solidly good! Still very happy.

2013 Jaguar XJ XJL Portfolio 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)

UPDATE: This is still my favorite of all the cars I've owned. It is rock solid and quiet at cruise speeds, corners superbly, and is very reliable. Inept dealer service has been the only drawback - having to return to the dealer 4 times to reset the service indicator warning. Simply the best car I've owned. After many Mercedes, I grew tired of their mundane interiors, and lately their Rube Goldberg exterior styling. The interior is measureably more luxurious and inviting than any Mercedes we've owned. The doors close with a solid "thunk"' reflecting the quality. Instrumentation is straightforward, and the audio quality is far beyond anything we've heard from Mercedes. Despite the negative reviews of the audio/navigation system, we've found this system much more user friendly, and programs easier than Mercedes clunky system.

If you can locate the 2012 Jaguar XJ with low mileage as I have; it is a great vehicle and a great buy. The body styling is not dated and many believe the drive train performs better than the changes that were made in the next couple of newer model years.
