Default Jaguar XF - Photoshoot!

Introducing the All new Jaguar XF

Yesss! , finally i got it all day, along with my friend to drive it while im shooting this beautiful car!

I can say, Well done & Thank you to bring this car alive and deliver it to us!

The first impression i got, that XF is aggressive, strong, powerful, and sporty!
Love the Engine, the sound of the V8 while ur pushing it to the max, love the handeling, Stability is awsome, and the suspension is excellent!

Inside, wow, very nice work, leather, with wood inside, i just love the way the Glove box open, by just touching it with ur finget(no need to press), the roof lights only pass ur hand and they will be on! also no need to press anything!

Navigation system, climate, audio control is so friendly and very easy to use!

I dont want to make it long, i will leave you with the pics below!
Enjoy the pics...

Big Thanks To Jaguar.

Nice-ish car - but why did Jag choose to style it to look like a crappy Hyundai/Daewoo/Lexus/Volvo love-child, instead of a real Jaguar?

What a chance to revisit the classis Jaguar lines - sorry to say this car looks rather shite and I would rather ***shudder*** own/drive a Bangle-BMW than this ugly blob of rolling dog-poop

Oh - very very nice photos BTW, considering the ugly car you had towork with

[rant]
And I guess every car i sgetting reverse-cameras, tyre pressure monitors, and other idiot toolls these days - because every new driver getting a license is a complete imbecil and devoid of the ability to look behind them or contemplate maintaining their tyre pressures or excercisinf common sense?

Thanks for ur comments RC45,
Sure i respect ur opinion.
To me it was same feeling when i saw the pics first, when i drove it, i changed my mind about it, and i like it!

Personally if i have 90.000$ i wont buy it! for my own reasons!
But cant deny that it will suits a part of people, and it will take the big place from their interests...

We will wait and see, Does this car will make difference? specially that Jaguar is passing through tough time these days!

RC45, What car do u drive?

Well - sitting inside you dont have to see the car - but whn youwalk up to it you need to "want" it - and thats where I would be dissapointed.

I think those people would not be Jaguarfans, but people just looking for another Lexuas or Volvo

This is true - and maybe Jaguar needs to serve different customers these days and just ignore the Jag fans. The problem I see, is when you this car at a Jaguar dealership, it looks out of place - if you see a new BMW or Benz and a their dealerships mong the older designs you see theyare Benz's and Beemers - this Jag just doesnt look like it belongs.

To commute and carry goods, people, dogs and generally run about - I drive a 7 year old Dodge Caravan.

For fun I drive the 700bhp Z07 in my signature

Great shots! While RC has reminded me of my initial disappointment with the XF's looks, it's still a very sharp car. I really like the shots on the narrow drive.

nice set of photos, well done, the car looks better in dark colors like the one I saw at our dealer ( silver, no good )
but as have been said above, not a real Jaguar to me, the design looks too "normal"
