My 2014 XJR long wheel base, is an amazing car. places the driver and occupants in comfort and performance. First taking the car for a ride I decided to floor it. This vehicle came to life like a true perormance car. Glued me to the back of the seat and roared like a lion. The interior is absolutly beautiful and fits around me like a glove. I have owned several luxury vehicles and I love this one the best...Great purchase with a great price.

I've had my 2016 XJ for close to a yr. No problems. It rides good, looks good and makes me look good. It's a little thirsty thru the city on gas but the ride makes up for that. I usually drive my truck anyway. I love the look. If you are looking to buy one, I suggest getting it from a personal owner or certified dealer w low miles. I bought mine w 21k mi. and it rides and looks new.

Our XJ is horrible in rain our snow. Yes it is AWD. If you wear eyeglasses and get the heated windshield you may not be able to drive at night. Google Jaguar glare. Tried to get a different car after three months and 2400 miles and was told the car was worth $30,000 less than what we paid. Glad it's a lease, can't wait to get out of it.

I Had a 2005 XJ8L

2014 Jaguar XJ XJL Portfolio 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)
5 of 13 people found this review helpful

if you're looking for the distinction of the 2005 - 2008 XJL models, forget it. I had a 2005, all black, interior and exterior, tinted window XJ8L. I owned "her, 'Betsy' " for 10.5 years, 117,300 miles (purchased at 23,000+ miles, coming off of a 2 year lease at purchase). Until the day my wife "totaled her" while "Betsy" was parked (11/2017), I received compliments on that car EVERY WEEK! State Farm insurance gave me a very nice close out, totaled figure, for the car. I picked up this 2014 XJL AWD Portfolio, Rhodium Silver, at 21,826 miles, with all the bells and whistles of the AWD "Portfolio," panoramic roof and all to replace "Betsy." Yet the class and distinction of my 2005 is missing (let alone the "Leaper" hood ornament.) I didn't want the newly styled Jaguar XJ from the "git go." But at the end of the day, other vehicles which I could afford, lacked the distinction of the Jaguar XJ. No real complaints except the distinction and seeming classy appearance of the earlier model XJs is missing. In addition, it also seems the mileage is not as good.
