Just bought the wife a new Jag XF yesterday, just wondering if any of you guys (family or friends) have any knowledge or info on these cars that would be handy to know ...........

Thanks in advance for any replies ............

Dreading any horror stories about them......

Just need to buy her a pipe and slippers now..........

Jags don't have that *pipe'n'slipper* image here on the continent must be an *islander* thing...

Mick, shouldn't you have asked that question BEFORE you bought it?

Which model did you go for? The R ? THE INVENTOR OF THE TERM "FULL-FAT RANGE ROVER" :

Only took her to see a couple of cars, BMW 3 SERIES, LEXUS IS250C, as she already has the merc, then onto the Jaguar Dealership and it was " I like that colour and i want that one "...

So i said well we can go home and think about it and the choices, And it was a case of "No i want the Jag and if i miss out on it you'll be sorry"....

So in all honestly Adam it was a spur of the moment purchase, which i am hoping will not come back to bite me on the arse.....

So anything for a quiet life, As long as she does not ask me to grow a moustache, then i would end up looking like Her !!!!!

Got Her the 2.7 Diesel Premium Luxury with all the toys to slow her down , coz she's a loon where powered cars are concerned , no ejector seat tho .................... F k getting her the "R" knowing my luck she would wreck it and survive ...........

All good reports that I've read and that engine is great in that vehicle  '09 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto for the Mrs

Using the works Fiesta 1.6 TDCI Sport Van - CHROME FREE THOUGH

Searching for a nice E63 AMG or S8 V10 to replace my "wonky" TDV8

Cheers Doc ....

yep can confirm this

Mick, we have one of those (same spec) in the company and the person who drives it on daily basis loves the car.
I have used only very occasionally and was extremely pleased with it
Thus in my eyes, your wife made an excellent choice, way better then the BMW or Lexus
Hope that you post some pics when you get it

Called into the Jag Dealer to hand in paperwork for getting the wifes private plate on the XF, While i was there they were having a preview launch of the new XJ.

Inside the 5.0 Supercharged XJ is stunning the one they had on show was the Long Wheel Base model in Portfolio Spec.

Could be tempted to jump ship for that ......

I only hear great things about the XF allround, my neighbour has one and loves it. Very nice car Mick! I am sure the SWMBO will love it

SWMBO gets her new XF today .......... must say really impressed by it .....

Meant to post these earlier .........

Well SWMBO got her new accessory

You're really spoiling her aren't you!
She must be a lovely lady or has got you by the exhaust pipe.  Don't mistake my snoring for a lack of interest?

Anything for a quiet life .................
