2013 Jaguar XF 2 2 TD Premium Luxury | Review and Test Drive 

Couldn't agree more!

What MPG figures are you getting?

@@ndzalamamathebula2104 overall I get around 36mpg, but most of my driving is around town. The car excels on the motorway where it'll happily idle at 1500 rpm at 70mph. I dont have specific mpg for the motorway but it'll be somewhere between 40 and 50mpg.

Any problems with timing chain and electrics?

@@Laf8911 it's a timing belt and I had it changed when it hit 7 yaars as recommended (1 months after buying the car!!!). I think its 7 years or 100k miles between changes.

Cheers, great cars Jaguars, i love them 👍

This is what someone told me 2.2, avoid the 3.0 (chocolate engines), and the 2.0 in the later ones are horrendous. The 2.2 is the DW12, the 2.2 version of the 2.0 DW10 thats in the black mondeo. Only thing to watch on XFs is windscreens leak, any steamed windows etc walk away, the electrics under the seats cop for the water that comes in and corrode the connections on the ECUs, other than that they are really good cars. Cambelts are 72k or 5 years.

@@KKTR3 awesome, thanks

sounds like you have been very unlucky, we have had no problems with any of the cars we have had or sold, apart from minor things like door locks

its a great car, to be honest i was afraid for the guy as its a really bad round about, i couldnt understand his mentality when he could have just gone across to the other road via the crossing and completely cut out the round about

@@BarrieCrampton he has as much right to be on the road as any car driver, thats the trouble, car drivers think they own the road.

hi sorry it sold within a couple of hours of uploading this video, sorry

i like the Bentley Continental GT, but other than that probably a Range Rover Vogue

@@BarrieCrampton Thanks Barrie. I agree Range Rovers are extremely comfortable Ive been in a few and Bentleys look plush but I've never been in one. However, both these are not reasonably practicable to own for us mere working class. I went to test drive a Premium Luxury just yesterday actually 2.2, nice car and the ride was fine, but as for the seats I found them extremely uncomfortable in the full leather. We took my wife's 15 years old Renault Megane 2 on a three hour run to test drive the jag, and I still say the meganes seats were by far more comfortable than the jags, obviously it can't quite compete travelling on a motorway but the meganes seats are still a far more comfortable place to sit on long distance.

When Jaguar pays for my cars i will do it the Jaguar Way 😎👍

@@BarrieCrampton Outrageous...

have you ever been in a car that hasn't got one? i think they are kind of taken as a gimme

Yep me too, but this is a lovely example

Hmm don't get me started, they are a nightmare round here

we just arent greedy

I totally agree, especially the Lycra-lists

seriously, we pay for the reconditioning cost and have to stand the warranty costs, so if they were trouble we wouldn't buy them, Range Rover and Jaguars are very good cars,

@@BarrieCrampton I'm sorry my friend have you seen or know of all the problems that land rover's an the 2007to 2010 jaguar xf have problems all those years of electric problems in all this cars are unnecessary such as poor Quality wiers in the headlights an so much to name I'm say that I don't like the car but it's a disappointment every time you spend money to fix one of these name brand cars this company's have to come better than that. My friend it you have a what's aap number that you can give to me I can send you pictures an video

We sell about 40 Jags and Landrovers a year, and apart from a couple of problems with the remote door locks they have all been ok, we get more problems with BMWs, and I have been in the Motor Trade for 40 Plus years so that's a lot of cars to take an average from

@@BarrieCrampton there are problems with the air compressor an the air saspenshon eltecals systems an the dashboard now the quantity of the sum of the land rover components are por an it's not a reliable SUV or luxury vehicle.....now as for jaguar I'm a owner of a 2004 jaguar x type from 2004 to this year 2019 I still have this car an after all those years of having this car I have had only two problems with it only two the two problems are #1 the alternator #2 the back brake caliper. This car has never let me down now that's the way I know jaguar.....now I went an I got a 2009 jaguar xf v6 cuz I like the car I was happy I got it but it was a disappointment it wud get stuck in D an will not start there TIMES I will start the car an the shifter wudnt come up at all .an the ac vents sum TIMES wudnt open or close an sum TIMES the touch screen wudnt respond long story short this days car manufacturers don't make good vehicles like before . So now my friend you tell me what jaguar or land rover out there that can give me the same reliability an my 2004 jaguar x type an I will get one

Im afraid that there aren’t any makes of cars out there that are as good or reliable as they were in 2004

ian durbridge dont watch them then. You’re Welcome
