Just bought exactly this, in white. 40k miles full Jaguar service history. Absolutely amazing car, highly recommended, and very well priced in the used market for what you get.

@leonpalmer2429 Год назад

What mpg are you getting at the moment? Don't know weather or not to get this or a 2.2

@blackkers3189 Год назад

@@leonpalmer2429 on a run 53 mpg by driving smoothly, mid roads 40 to 46, town mid to hight thirties. Depends how you drive. At 70 mph the car is sitting at around 1200 revs!

I think this Jaguar badge is actually at the top, thanks.

@spudmurphy764 Год назад

First time I've seen a car being tested on the Trough - great! I've got the very same model, 13 reg, Italian Racing Red, Ivory leather, 20" black alloys, black body pack (no chrome), sun-roof, 825W Meridian wireless set. Had it nearly five years, and I will never sell it - ever! Great review!

Thanks for enthusiasm, this car deserves this video ... especially what you feel when you drive it ! It's something unique & thanks to Ian Calumn for his vision to be the Nr.1 sport saloon car ! They own it! The engineering on this car is outstanding ... somewhere smarter than Mercedes! I own it & discovered it myself ! Thanks to the Design & Engineering team! And your enthusiasm! Keep that ;)

The last thing those kids were expecting to see on their day out was one man cooking bacon from the back of a Defender and another man reading out a service history to a bunch of cameras in a Jag 😂 Nice car Jags are… don’t know why people say they’re unreliable. They’re only unreliable if they’re not maintained properly, as goes for any car.

@Scisca1a2a 7 месяцев назад

I love the desing and philosophy behind British cars, but I'm so scared of high costs of repairing them. That's why I drive a 2012 Honda instead of a 2012 Jaguar, even though they cost the same to purchase.

@rocket78able Год назад

The best Jaguar sedan ever made. XFR with the 5 litre was the pinnacle. This twin turbo V6 is the pick for power and economy, have the same engine in my F Pace. It's a pity cars like this are a dying breed.

@Andy-zi1wj 2 года назад

I think the performance figures you quoted are for the 240bhp model. The s model with 270 bhp has a 0-60 of 5.9 :)

@BarrieCrampton 2 года назад

@terrystratford1235 6 месяцев назад

I was thinking of getting a xk8 or xkr. Xk8 is 6.4 0,,-60. Xkr is 5.4sec! So 5.9 for a big heavy diesel is amazing! Plus you get better mpg😂

@fhfhdbbcbfchfjjf382 6 месяцев назад

Not really a fan of a diesel. but l have a 2.0 which is very fast despite it being a 4 cylinder engine 0-60 - 5.7 seconds for me and it was hella worth it despite it being cheap

@suprac19 Год назад

I agree, The 3litre bmw diesel doesn't break its own crankshaft, it's more fuel efficient, cheaper to tax, is euro 6 instead of 5 and the 35d is more powerful. The 2.2 litre ford engine although more reliable is from a mondeo and transit van. Ive been looking at these jags and considering buying one but because of the above mentioned I might end up going for a 5 series, I believe the bmw would hold its value better too, these jags might end up devaluing like a rover 75.
