Hey there Jaguarforums! I've been lurking a bit, reading up on opinions, quick-fixes, and mods for these well-thought out vehicles. I purchased a used 2010 Jaguar XF Premium in Ultimate black with a light interior (cream?) 100,000 miles on the dash; I fell in love at first test drive. It had some problems during the test drive (no interior lights, no glovebox operation, no sunroof, no vanity lights, some mid-speakers and tweeters out, no floor mats, no manual, previous owner still had presets in nav/radio) but I didn't care, the price was right ($14,100 USD) . I was even lied to, but I was in love! I'm glad to be here and glad to be out of my charger! I'm quite tech savvy, and mechanically inclined, and work at a Mopar dealership. (P.S. The sales department staff at Autofair Volkwagen is uninformed and a bit underhanded, but management did their best)

Hello, Ryan,
They tell me that Love isn't blind, but Lust is. I couldn't speak to that point, it's just something I heard.

For such a new car that's quite a list of faults! I'm thinking someone didn't care for this car very much, but simply drove it until one too many things broke and they didn't want to play catch-up.

I hope you can get all that stuff fixed/repaired/adjusted etc., so you can Really love the car and not merely learn to put up with its faults.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Welcome to the forum Ryan,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

It sounds like you've already found your way to the X250 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.


Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Northeast Region forum by following this link US Northeast - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
