I get mine serviced/fixed at Jaguar. Not worth the headache of a 3rd party garage that could potentially ruin the car with bad workmanship.

Mines done around 60,000km and I've had nothing but problems in the last month. Car is currently in the garage being fixed.

Wasn't loud enough for me, ended up getting a straight pipe custom made by Spires. Totally worth it, sounds like a Maserati now.

Hi everyone!
I am an American in Dubai. I have been here for two years painfully stuck in a company rental! My whole life in the States, in relation to cars was always brand new and with a hefty monthly payment.

Well recently I turned over a new leaf, I actually saved up for a car and paid in full for a luxurious '06 Jaguar XJ8 Sovereign in Slate Metallic! Not sure if I more proud of the deal on this sexy classy baby or the fact that I saved up and paid in full! LOL

Anyways glad to be here and oh so happy with this iconic Jaguar!

Working on buying a 2009 XF from owner in the Jumeriah Palms. I live & work in Abu Dhabi because I don't really want to do a 45-50 minute commute up and down the Sheik Zayed highway of death, especially since there are times I get off work close to midnight, and an totally wasted...

Good day all in Dubai. Recently bought an XJ8 sovereign 2009 model with 21000 kn. still under warranty until May 2015 but the service contract just expired. Note in a message from mdm that labour charges apply even with service contract, whereas I was advised that if I take an extension it's all inclusive minus the usual types/batteries.

This is my first Jag, nice enough drive, a bit wallowy around the corners!

Hi Guys,
Got a good deal for a second car in the family, well maintained car.
Car has 121,000 kms on it but runs just awesome. Had been maintained by 4X Motors till now under the old owner.
Took the car to Al Tayer for a service and had a 96k service done to update the service books and get a service record entered from the dealer.
Would like to post rates for others to compare.
Charged AED2800.00 for a semi-major service as they put it.
Got all sorts of Filters changed, Air, Aircon, Lube, complete check of the vehicle Headlight HID replaced.

Would like to know of other good service centres handling Jags professionally. Keep posting and updating guys. The earlier owner recommended 4XMotors and also seen that name coming in on another post here.

By the way, on a side note. Anyone faced a particular 'Lurch' issue when coming to a halt.
Other than this minor distraction, the car is pleasing.
