My '10 is getting a little bit long in the tooth, has been a great and reliable car but the age is starting to show. I'm considering, but have not driven a '20 XFS.

Has anybody gone this way? Sock money into the '10 or 'upgrade' to a V6? How would you contrast the handling?

 

You have a SC V-8 now will the small SC V-6 satisfy you?
Give it a drive and see?

Indeed, this is the concern...

 

Solution was a '20 E53. In a lot of ways its inferior but handling, steering and chassis refinement, braking is equivalent and that was hard to find. Doesn't have the muscle both engine wise and in a sense of the way they handle. Jaguar is still a higher quality car with more character, but the Mercedes hands down wins the handling/dynamic characteristics battle.

Too bad Jag has their head up their electric As$.

 

Hi
I am in same boat as my '11 SC is heading to a new home. We had a new XF as a loaner a few months back and it was no way comparison to ours IMO.
I think the E53 is an awesome choice and a good transition... There's just nothing out there like these old XFs
Why Jag is not being Jag and going all electric is just nuts...
Best of luck w/ Benz
