Am I the only one who's bought a 2021 XF so far? Also: Does anyone know what the designation will be for the update? Still X260? I haven't found it referenced anywhere yet.

 

XF will have this designation probably until they go all electric in 2025.

 

Topix seems to still refer to it as the x260 but with a "21MY" designation..

So how is it?
Does Kansas have any hills to waft about?
What's your model's specs/trim?
What was your previous car?
Cheers!

 

So far MY21 XF is great. First Jag. We were shopping to replace wife's '18 MB C43AMG and she saw the XF and it was game-over. Black with red interior; it's really a beautiful car. The updated electronics and cockpit are outstanding. We got the R-Dynamic with all the goodies for a third LESS than we spent on the Benz. More flash, more features; less cash. No argument here! And no, unfortunately not too many hills in Kansas, but we do have an occasional winding road along a river and we do what we can with it!

 

So how do you enjoy driving it in the real world? So much pushback about the HP of the car, I wonder if you feel underwhelmed when out on the road?

 

Hello:
I just purchased a MY21 XF on Tuesday, March 16. It was the last one available from any of our 3 Phoenix dealers. Coming back to Jaguar after 3 BMWs (16 years) and a Mercedes (4 years). I owned a 98 XJ8 before the first Bimmer in 2001. The last three, 2 Bimmers and the Mercedes were SUVs and it was time to return to a sedan for us. The 5-series BMW and the E-class Mercedes are really nice but are not worth a 10K premium over the XF for similar specs. The XF seems more delicate, but drives and handles rings are the other two. My daughter has a 2017 F-Pace which has been flawless for her and helped me decide to come back to Jaguar.
The XF has only traveled 200 miles, but is a joy to drive and easy to use its functions. More road noise (Pirelli's ??) but less wind noise than the GLC 300.
Happy to be back in a Jaguar, so far....

It's not as fast as the Mercedes C43, but it's still pretty quick. It feels more refined than the MB and it gets MUCH more attention. The handling is much more confident. It's quieter. The real test is a traffic circle near the house: The XF is much better through it.. So far, love it.

 

We'd had 2 Mercedes and an Audi and the '21 XF is much more fun to drive, better warranty, stands out better, and is $10k cheaper. The last MB was a C43 with low profile run-flats and the Jag has less road noise and feels more comfortable by far. Glad to hear from another owner!

 

I know this car is newly refreshed. Wondering if dealers are giving out good discounts on the 21s

 

Brand new here, tried to private message this but because of my rookie standing I wasn’t able to. I am in the market for. 2021 xf r dynamic AWD and live in the greater Boston area. There are a couple around with msrp of 54k or so. I hope my question is appropriate but what type of discount should I expect on one that is on the lot, not special order. I am not afraid of negotiating hard with dealers but that said I have not owned a jag before, Volvo, Saab’s, Lexus and others have been in my garage but Jaguar dealers are some what rare around here. With COVID I would be comfortable, after a test drive, negotiation out of my area. Seems like dealers are more open to negotiating by phone and delivering the car to your house.
thanks for any guidance,

We only have one Jaguar dealer in Kansas City and I bought the first one they rec'd. I don't know if it's TMI but we got about 8% off. It sounds like they're not lasting long on lots so I'm not sure if that's representative of pricing people are finding now.

Thanks, it may be at least a baseline. There are 3 or 4 cars in my general area that would work. One issue is two of the four or so dealerships are owned by the same people. I appreciate your input and will keep you posted if you’re interested.

We're Interested..
Good Hunting, send pix!

 

Do you guys mind sending any pics of your cars?

 

Here's my MY21 XF SE. Eiger Gray/Oyster.

 

That's beautiful! We just clicked 1000 miles and are having a blast. Warning though: We were pulled over by a small town cop in central Kansas Saturday... He finally admitted he really just wanted to see the car! We're happy he was impressed, but that's not the kind of attention we were hoping for!

 

I'm seriously considering the MY21 XF P300 - I test drove a 21XF P300 R-Dyn and compared to a 20XF S on the dealer lot it felt tighter inside - does anyone know where to find the official Jaguar specs for MY20 ? is MY21 the same interior dimension as MY20 ? I'm currently driving a Infiniti Q50 - more power but ready for a change. Thanks for any thoughts !

 

Speaking of a central Kansas "pinch"....I previously owned an S type R. On one of the long truck passing lane stretches west of Emporia KS I opted to let her "breath" a little and popped the S type up to around 140 mph for a brief few seconds. Ah...the wonderful sound of the supercharger at full song. Curiosity satisfied and the spousal unit giving me a "what the ....?" look, I back off to a modest 70 mph. Only but a few miles further down the road, entering the city's edge, an officer pulled me over for doing 53 in a 45 ! Having enjoyed a clean driving record for over 30+ years, I received a warning for my inattentiveness. I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. Think I'll keep my need for speed reserved for my racing simulator.

 

Hwy 50, west of Emporia. I know it well!
