Hey guys -

I'm an f-type owner, but last weekend I got ride of my awful Evoque and joined the XJL club. So far, couldn't be happier - got a pretty good deal on a '15 and so far, car has been fantastic and definitely gets some looks

I feel like the 20's actually look too small for the car, maybe it's all in my mind. Here's a few pictures:

 

An F-type and a XJ is the winning combination! Congratulation, very nice cars. You have great taste!

 

Congrats, looks good!

 

Lovely, colour looks great, green in one pic and blue in another, a very nice car, had mine 4 1/2 years and very, very, pleased with it.

 

XJ is a sick ride

 

Thanks guys! It's the first Jaguar sedan I've owned and so far, it's been great.

It's definitely a big car, long...great ride. Now if only they made the XJR in awd!!

 

PHilly, your wishes may be coming true here shortly. While I was in London for the Feel XE event, a little birdie told me that they were making a supercharged version of the AWD XJ. The power is going to be slightly de-tuned (458 hp as I recall). But, will still be more than enough when you need the AWD. I would anticipate it in the 2017/2018 MY car at a guess.

 

You have the best color interior combination in the XJL and they are not easy to find, just like mine. Congrats, love the wood trim on the wheel btw!

 

To be honest, the car is massive nothing less than 20"s fits the profile, i have 22's but im going back to 20"s because i want a stock look but yes

 

Awesome news! And the timing is even pretty decent. A bit surprised they're taking their time on this since their competitors have been offering performance sedans in awd. Either way, thanks for the info

sonicd0012 - yeah, I hear ya. Have any pics of your ride on the 22's?

Why did you hate the Evoque? It's such a girly car/truck.

 

Welcome to the family.

 

Ha, yes it was...funny...it was actually wifey's ride and she hated it too! Let's see: viability was awful (but hey, kinda knew that)...really, the main issue was that over 3 years it was in the shop multiple times - various ecu updates, fuel sending units, fuel pumps - yes, plural on those took at least twice to get it all sorted and the turbo lag was unacceptable in an oem vehicle - in my opinion.

 

Welcome aboard! I've had mine a little over two years and still love it. Just be prepared to get a lot of looks and favorable comments.

 

Congrats and welcome to the forum...gorgeous car you have there!
