Wonder if it'll be better built than the first version? My dad has had 2 of them, and they have both been plagued with electrical/sensor problems, which on every occasion have sent the car into 'limp-home' mode.

Doesn't just seem to be him either, he knows a few people who've also had lotsof niggly issues with JLR cars (all while the cars were less than 3 years old, thankfully). He got rid of both before they came up to end of warranty, and says he won't be buying another.

Well, I had a 3.0D (2010) model and it was completely faultless over 75,000 miles of driving. By far the quiestest, most comfortable and best car I have owned and driven to date. My current car is noisy and unrefined compared to the XF.

I probably wouldn't get another XF as I no longer need a car that big but the XE might just be a contender when I'm next in the market.

Looks great, given the constraints the designers work to its a pretty good result. Rob have you posted this comment before? I'd never buy any car if I listened to all the family and friends issues with a particular manufacturer.

What a minger. Looks like a BMW has rogered an Audi and given birth.

Really?

Looks like an updated Jaguar XF to me, very nice.

The only thing I'm not sure about is the shape of the little rear three quarters window, I keep thinking Subaru Legacy.
