Summary
What does this car say about you?
I've never heard it say anything about me or anyone else come to think of it.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
My wife isn't keen (but her favourite car is a Jeep Wrangler) but every guy I know is really complimentary about it.
Would you buy this car again and why?
I grew up dreaming of owning a Jag (MkII 3.8) but this is the first modern Jag I wanted. I would certainly buy another Jag now though.
What are you likely to buy next?
Quite possibly a Jag XKR.

Had a Maserati QP before so wanted to spend less time at the pumps.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Push the sport button and the dash changes colour to red, the seat belts grip you tighter and the big cat feels poised and ready to play. After a long journey it will deposit you at your destination just as fresh as when you set off.
What's it like to park?
Its a doddle to park with sensors front and back plus a rear parking camera. Not so easy to get out when constrained to UK regulation Council parking bays though.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Not a single thing!
What's most practical about your car?
My golf clubs and electric trolley fit in the boot with room to spare!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Its silly I know but the keyless entry, push button start and motorised gear selector all help create a sense of occasion!
