Hey bro, looking to buy one myself 2018 model... Can you tell me how was the maintenance and if there was any problem with the engine? Thanks in advance.

@@MyNEO123456789 didn’t need much maintenance, But the diesel engine has a weakness that can give compression down in the oil pan which results in engine change. They changed this in the 2019 model, so if u want the 2.0 inline 4 diesel model u should go for a 2019 model. Other than that it was an absolutte dream car to have, driving experience is fantastic and fun.

Big Three? Toyota, Lexus and Honda?

@@sasagrcevic475don’t be stupid and ridiculous, it’s ofc BMW 🥇 Merc 🥈 Audi🥉, in this case Jag might be better than big 3 though

Oh dang!! Congrats! Glad you're liking it!

Thanks for watching! We do to haha.

Thank you for watching!

Thanks! Greatly appreciated.

My only hesistancy is reliability. How has your XE been?

@@martinmontez5950 mine has been a near perfect experience with the car I have at present.

Thank you!

That was a cool one

Cheers! It's an often overlooked, but decent small sedan option.

Greatest car I ever owned.

It's a killer colour combination. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching! It's a little nuts at the moment. Fingers crossed you get a drive in one soon!

Just got mine 22 plate, problems with transmission slipping back into neutral 🤬🤬 reported to dealership 2 days ago...no reply yet...been online and its not a one off either.

Cheers!!

Thanks!

Thanks man! Appreciate the support.

Interesting take. We certainly need to get a BMW 3 Series to review asap.

What are you doing in the land of the communists? Are you a communist yourself?

Standard system is fine, the upgrade system is awesome

The Meridian system is certainly a good step up from the base system. As for the exhaust/engine sound, it's a little lack lustre.

Thanks!

Cheers! Thank you for watching!

I like this analogy

@@ProductReviewCars Your review was perhaps the most insightful and spot on I have seen in regard to the value proposition of the 2020 XE refresh with the higher output turbo 4. Most reviewers simply ignore or undervalue the aesthetics - which is the number 1 priority for a Jaguar buyer. Beauty attracts but once you get to know and drive and live with the car, you fall in love. This is a very different emotional attachment to that which one gets when buying and owning a MB, Audi or BMW which are about as rare as a VW. The Jaguar is a car you have a torrid lustful affair with initially and with which, you eventually fall in love with. It is a different kind of person who buys a Jaguar. Emotion is what attracts and sells and only after the initial attraction does the buyer later come to rationalize the purchase by recognizing the underlying value and greatness of the car over days, weeks and months. It is a very different process than that followed by people who buy the German or Japanese brands. Buying a Jag is most like buying an Alfa Romeo - which why both are niche brands are usually the choice for automotive fashionistas and why the cold rational thinking habitual car buyers never get the allure of the Jag and the Alfa and never shop the brands. Beauty is its own reward and only if you are mesmerized by the looks, will you ever test drive one, let alone buy one. Jags look as good as they drive and vice versa. No one else does except maybe Alfa Romeo.

@@rf8481 Good comment. My final shortlist is the XE and Alfa Giulia. I can't decide between them on paper so I'll test drive both soon. Have you driven either?

@@UKTonyMagill In the USA, the Jaguar warranty is 5 years -60K miles with no cost maintenance and roadside assistance so Jag wins out on that score, plus the dealer network for Jag is on average higher class with better service as Alfa used lower rent dealers which also sell other less expensive brands. Plus the reliability of petrol/gasoline powered Jags based on personal experience is very good compared to the most powerful Alfa engines. In the end, it comes down to which car or SUV has the overall better external design and interior and value. Even a Jag service loaner bought as CPO car can be acquired with an extended warranty adding 2 years onto the original manufacturer warranty. Now of course, cars seldom explode or melt down in the first 5 years or 7 years anyway. In general they start experiencing system failures after 80,000 miles of 7 years just due to the effect of time on electronics, seals, gaskets, plastics from repeated cycles of extreme heat and cold. Oh sure batteries can die and other things can break but these are relatively common and minor issues. In the end, I think Jag's are better looking and have a more luxurious ride without sacrificing handling and performance. Alfas are just more tightly sprung and ride rougher. Alfas are great handling and nice looking vehicles but if you plan to spend time riding over rough roads in your commute, the sport's car ride gets old pretty fast and you will really want a bit more cushion and luxury. Jag beats every other brand in this regard as they offer the most usable blend of luxury and ride for daily driving whether in the F Pace or the XE. While I own both the supercharged V 6 and a turbocharged I 4 Jaguar F Pace AWD and XE S AWD, the post 2020 Jaguars have stepped up the interior fit and finish to the point wherein the Germans and Japanese have nothing that is superior to the Jags overall in regard to luxury and comfort. Jags are sweet looking and driving cars and you only have to drive around the block in a Jag to get a feel for the car and that initial 2 minute ride will either sell it or not.

@@rf8481 thank you for your comprehensive reply. Very helpful. I take your point about the XE and Jaguar in general. The sensible side of me is favouring the Jag as a daily driver but we'll see what happens when I get behind the wheel of a Giulia!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you! Totally will chase down a XF when we get the chance. Keep an eye out on here hopefully soon.

If you’re leasing for example, why not!

According to my sources, on average, Jaguar cars depreciate 61% over 5 years.

I'd kill for a Giulia QV wagon

@@ProductReviewCars Yeah i will have to look into that then do they sound really good as well i am looking at bmw 3 series wagon would change my mind thou

Hey! Appreciate the feedback. It's something we're looking to change in upcoming reviews to incorporate more clear-cut pros and cons.

Just depends what car you put it in. A somewhat heavy sedan, not so great. In a light hot hatch, great! And it's relative to. Since this chassis can fit a inline 6 and even a supercharged V8 - so 400Nm isn't the best power this car could have.

!!!

It’s already very low. Why do you want to lower it further? You are longing to kiss the sleeping policeman with your front bumper?
