Jaguar XJ Saloon 4.0 Sovereign 4d Auto (98) (2000/W) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
2/3rd the price of any comparable Mercedes and much more luxury.
Costs
I have found more than one main dealer to be dishonest, expensive and unhelpful. Luckily haven't needed much contact with them.

On the road
Driving
I bought the car for luxury. I did not realise this was a sports car when I bought it! It will out accelerate all but the absolute best. Makes my CLK 320 feel like a Lada.
Performance
Warn passenger if selecting sport mode for over-taking! Nothing like it.

Living with it
Reliability
Spray the 8 spark plug leads with damp-start!
Image
I am not old enough or fat enough yet... but will keep the car until I am!
Comfort
Makes Mercedes Elegance trim look very very shabby.
