Ferrari Mailing List: Re: New Jaguar XF

[Britt2Asa (Britt2Asa]

When you see the car in person it is a great car. Only the grill is not  
perfect but the rear 3/4 of the car is a dead ringer for an Aston martin. First 
 
sat in one in Nov last year. Its the only Jag I have been in that is a serious  
contender to replace my 5 series and over here its about 5000.00 pounds 
cheaper  as well! The interior is fantastic, modern and a great place to be. 
Saw 
one on  the road today and again you have to do a double take to note that it 
is 
NOT an  AM which in my book makes it a real looker! Lot better than the X 
type or S type  crap they have been peddling.

Has  anyone seen the ads for the new Jaguar  XF?

It  looks like they have put Jaguar badges on a Lexus. The shape and lines 
are  a complete departure and not in a good direction. As an example, note 
the  inverted soda can gear selector. Maybe I sold my XK-150 S just in  time.
