Hello from me

Hi all, took ownership of my first jag last week and thought it would be a good idea to join the club for advice and general chat from people who know a lot more than me about my car.

my car is a 2015 xf r-sport 2.2 200bhp saloon, and so far love it (apart from some minor niggles but we can talk about those later). I'm from the midlands area and look forward to future discussions with you all.

many thanks Ash.

Hi everyone, just joined the forum as I have recently bought an 2016 xf r sport. 

So dissapoined with the build quality. It’s horrednous. Rattles for the b pillar, dab radio has stopped working, bonnet is going in for adjustments as it is sitting slightly off centre (cant belive i missed this when buying it). All of which are covered under warranty but doesnt bode well for the future. Anyhow rant over. 

Its does look incredible and is really nicely finsihed inside. Looking forward to getting to know everyone else.

Welcome to the club, Jonathan.

I am surprised at your comment on the build quality which I can only put down to some untoward attention fro he previous owner. The radio is probably an easy fix, and as you say, covered by the warranty.

My s type is just over 10 years old and there is not a flaw on the build quality.  We do make good cars in Brummagem.

Regards,

Peter.

Hi Ash and Jonny...welcome to the Club

Both XF owners with niggling issues....its a shame as it detracts from what is essentially a superb car but hopefully, things will settle down shortly and you can enjoy the car for it's finer points.

Good to have you both onboard

Cheers,   Trevor

Hi Pete, Jonny, and Trevor, everything works brilliantly in my car, it was the sales managers car at stratstone in Nottingham and really is in super condition and drives beautifully, my niggles are more to do where things could be slightly better,

no exterior puddle lights

electronic park brake doesn't auto apply when selecting park

no voice control for phone or satnav

engine noise can be slightly gruff at low revs

 

overall though the pros far out way the cons, jag have always known (my parents and grandparents have always had them) how to make beautiful looking cars with luxurious interiors.

cheers ash
