The Cat is (possibly) back!?

I give you, the Jaguar XF.

Jaguar XF

I'm not so sure about the name. The XF...???

I used to have a Suzuki XF 650. :razz:

However. I'll bet it drives very, very well indeed.

Comments?

Will it be the last Ford Engineered Jag' ?

Who knows these days, it could well be

 

[MarkF]

Yep.
Looks just like the new Mondeo but with a Jag badge.

Had a read about that car in a mag Autocar I think, they really rated it quite highly and reckon this time they have finally got it together and produced a proper Jag. I like the interior as well, looks like they have used real wood.

 

[verytalldave]

Still rather have a W204.

 

[jubhi]

Yep, Mercs are better thats why I bought one

Back in the good old days Jaguars were more powerful and had more equipment as standard than the German opposition, they were also around a third cheaper.

They may be better built now but they still depreciate at a frightening rate and cost the same as the competition. As a consequence nobody seems to be buying them.

In the supposedly bad days prior to Ford ownership they shifted something like 40,000 XJ6's in a good year. Last year they sold around 10,000 of the flagship model.

Might be going the same way as MG/Rover perhaps in a few years?

Birmingham's finest that's what it is. Buy British There's a thought? :roll:

I resemble the Mondane with a Jag badge remark. It's just not true!

I dont think there is any "might" or "perhaps" about it...............

I saw one on the M62 a month or so back - must have been a pre-production press car. I pulled over to let it past, thinking it was a Massarati, so not so sure about the mondeo looks!
Certainly flew past me anyway!
I quite like it.
Either way, it's british made so good luck to it.
