Hi everyone,
Just purchased a 2016 Jaguar XF AWD Prestige Ammonite Grey Metallic with Light Oyster leather interior. Has 340HP V6 Supercharged 8 speed auto/paddles. Very fast and has been economical so far. I usually get 7.5 to 8.3 litres/100 kms which is really good actually. Greetings to everyone. Maybe the new Jag XF is not so cushy, woody and luxurious inside but time and economics seem to change things. It IS a great driving car and beats my last car a 2011 BMW528i straight 6.
AL

My 5 series was a good car but the Jaguar is miles ahead and I mean that as a pun--only thing those cars will see are my TAIL PIPES.
cheers

Welcome BCJAG What you will notice is that BMW drivers and Infinity and all of the high end car drivers will strain their necks to look at your Jag. They are still scarce on the road while in Calgary every second car is a BMW. Almost bought one but got my first XF and glad I did. In my 2014 XFRS guys almost caused accidents looking sideways and a guy walked into his wife while walking. You will notice some strange things now so drive carefully. Great cars.

Jagdocs.com will sell you a pdf copy for your specific car for about $14 - 15.
Buy on line its yours for good. Have one for my XF. Don't think Jaguar will sell you one they want to charge you labour. No question they are good since they know the cars but the markup repair costs are prohibitive. Download the manual from Jagdocs.com
