 jameshayman's recommendation | |
Style, paint finish, economy (2.7D), competitive purchase price.
wind noise at 40mph plus (louder than recently owned XKR and previously owned S type. Bizarrely complex SatNav. Reversing screen shows no datum lines for positioning as with Lexus for example.
Overall a good package but the expected quiet luxury at moderate and higher speeds, experienced with other Jaguars owned by this reviewer (XJ6 1996, XJ8 1999, S class 2001 and even the XKR owned from 2004 to March this year ) has been left at the gate! There is something very odd about the aero dynamics that allows air to be vortexed around the top of the doors rubbers and between the mirrors and body - enormously disappointing! I am afraid that I am giving my dealer a very bad time!
