Been searching the web and can't find any numbers...

 

Factory is down to one shift. Plant could run three shifts to 24 hours if demand justified it. They were running two shifts when the XF was selling well.

Recession has hit euro domestic markets pretty hard. UK is still a significant market for the XF and selling well.

 

If the number around here where I live is anything to go by, it is very successful. I only see one or two of my car, (X350), and very very rarely the new XJ saloon, in comparison. Jaguar must have turned out thousands, but the market has now slowed in Europe, no doubt about it.

Jaguar need a smaller saloon to replace the X-type, as this size and price of car is a huge market in Europe. They could also do with an SUV to sell, similar to the way you can buy a Volkswagen Tuareg at a VW dealer, and an Audi Q7 at the Audi dealer, which is basically the same car.

 

I guess my illusion (or dillusion) is my car might be worth holding on to and keeping the miles down for a higher resale value... It's hard to keep my attention and will probably be buying the next greatest thing to come along... alright, I admit I have a car problem.... lol

 

This article has some US sales numbers, but not much detail.
