It’s been a long time in coming, and a bit of a boyhood dream, (I’m 52 now) but last Friday I picked up my 2013 XF 3.0 D Sportbrake with Premium Luxury Trim level. Have to say it’s everything that the young boy in me dreamed having a “Big Cat” would be. Fast, responsive, big, hugely comfy and very sure footed on its feet. I’m a bit smitten, but then no doubt everyone on here is Thanks for having me

We own two Jaguars; a 2006 X-Type 3.0 AWD base and a 2007 XJ8L (photo). Just acquired the X-Type. Happy to have found this site!

Hi all Previously an owner of a 2000 Daimler Super V8 and a 2004 Jag XJ 4.2 I'm considering a change of career, and I'll be needing to buy my own car for work as I currently drive a company van. I've always been a fan of Japanese performance cars and currently have a Turbo'd Mazda MX-5 and a Subaru Impreza WRX Estate. The Subaru is the most 'sensible' car I've owned for a really long time, despite how high maintenance they are. I've also always enjoyed having a large V8 about, and have tried a few different ones, most recently a 2000 CL500 mercedes, but I've only every found the jags to be 'special' and to have a sense of occasion about them. Anyway. After trawling through loads of possible 'sensible' cars, I've ruled out anything BMW or Mercedes has to offer, I find Audi/VW to be totally dull, and the Japanese have nothing interesting and nice, so I keep coming back to the Jaguar XF. I'd likely be selling the mx5 and Subaru to get a fairly recent one, 2013 or newer. How does everyone find their XF? Any particular 'must have' options? Are they a good enough drive that it'll satisfy me from buying something silly? When was Android Auto available? Looks like the ZF 8 speed is the gearbox to have, compare to the older units? How's reliability? 2.0d, 2.0t or 3.0d? All input welcome! Thanks Dave

After trying to retire from work for 10 years and "get down to one car" I have just given in again and bought a 2020 E-Pace, my wife can/will only drive small hatchbacks, so we have had Clio RS, Peugeot GTI etc. I had an XE R-Sport until earlier in the year so after previously owning an Evoque I was drawn to the E-Pace. I have bought an R-Sport HSE and I am trying to get my head round all of the "Toys" still stuck on the Parking Sensors but I am sure it will come !!!

Leeds, and if anyone knows of local meets interested to come along
