See the blog feature on this -The Jaguar XF is rather large car and one that not only looks fantastic but drives superbly also, surprising this may be due to its size, though having driven the smaller XE model this year, Jaguar sure know how to hone their chassis.
So yes, being quite a big car, think BMW 5 series, Infiniti Q50 or Merc E-Class for ease of comparison, the Jaguar XF wouldnt look out of place in an airport private taxi rank or rolling up to the red carpet with a VIP on board or indeed as the chosen steed for a Mayor.
The XF however is most commonly seen parked by the club house of most golf clubs, it is the gentlemans chariot that will carry two sets of clubs with ease, sooth the lower back pain after 18 holes with its heated seats and will waft you home in huge comfort.
Nothing says Jaaaaaag more than navy blue paint with cream leather and this XF R-Sport tested, thanks to Jaguar UK certainly meets the criteria with its Dark Sapphire paint at a cost of £690 whilst the interior which I will touch on soon is covered in a mix of cream and black leather.
Being an R-Sport model I expected wheels much larger than the 17 ones fitted to this car, however with these wheels comes a large tyre sidewall and with that comes a means to absorb our sometimes shocking road conditions and as such added comfort which is welcomed.
Keyless entry with start button, front and rear parking sensors, auto wipers and very sleek headlamps with LED daytime running lights all feature on this model with electrically folding, heated side mirrors being added at a cos of £360.
The XF has been on the market for a long time now and over the years it has received mechanical tweaks and cosmetic changes to keep it fresh looking and right up to date with the styling and technology of its rivals and the fact that it hasnt had any major redesigns means that Jaguar got it right first time round and as such why change a good thing?
Being a saloon, practicality can suffer due to the nature of such cars and it will never carry obscure loads that will fit into a hatchback or estate car but in all fairness the XF provides a substantial boot space suitable for those into golf while offering more than enough room for a dozen guns, a few slabs of cartridges with enough room left for a few brace each with 4 gentlemen on board.
For longer loads, this XF has received the very useful split fold rear seat upgrade at a cost of £430 which breaks the rear seats down in a 40:20:40 way and as such makes it a lot more practical when a run to Ikea is forced upon you.
Inside the XF is a nice place to be, maybe not as pleasing on the eye as some rivals but Jaguar have kept things simple, in an ergonomic kind of way which is a good thing. Read the Full Article Here
