New Jaguar XJ
Interesting. And slightly challenging.
But certainly bold and fresh. Has some road presence. Check out that electronic dash !!! D.

I think Jaguar are producing some of the most exciting cars at the moment - who'd have thought that a few years ago?
Lets hope they depreciate like the previous cars. Those interior shots are gorgeous. |

That interior would make you feel so special every time you got in the car. A thing of pure beauty. Absolutely love it and I never thought I'd be excited by a Jag! Not keen on the side profile of the car at all though. But then I like sports cars and coupes, so not the sort of styling that appeals to me really. Still...has some serious presence.

I think they are managing the transition from oldy worldy Jag to modern day very well. I'd love one, but no real chance of that unless I win the pools.

Seriously, with the 3.0 diesel costing less than the 730d why would you buy the BMW??
It looks exclusive, modern and the Jag handling will suit that sort of car. I can see it stealing a lot of sales from Mercedes as well. |

Looks good to me. The new facelifted Range Rover looks to have the same dash (certainly the new Supercharged one).

I think the rear quarter looks absolutely disgusting, and the front grille was stolen from a crash damaged bentley conti gt
letalone the wheels are almost stolen from the 19" 225 design, and the interior is cack. But thats just me. Maybe in 30 years my mind will like this sort of design.. Maybe..

The interior is lovely however being british made, I can see if falling apart within 2 years. A friend of mind has an XF and says it's built like a cig packet.
Looks wise, externally I'm not sure about the rear and I'm not sure if it would be enough to get me out of the BMW showroom. |
