Video review of the 2014 Jaguar XF - how does it drive? My thoughts on how the Jag drives in general, what the automatic box is like, how stable it is on journeys, how easy it is to see and use the controls, what the gearshift and power delivery is like and how much I love dynamic mode!

I agree with you, this is a terrific car. In 2013 I bought a new XFS 3D. It now has more than 90km on the clock. Apart from a couple of DPF issues it has been great. I absolutely love it. My problem now is to find something to replace it.

Ha! I know that feeling very well. I've looked at the following as replacements and not one of them stacked up: 1. Jaguar XK 4.2 - my XF is faster in the mid range 2. Audi A7 313bhp - my XF is better balanced, faster in the real world and doesn't understeer like the Audi 3. VW Golf R - a huge disappointment. Couldn't get out of it fast enough, did not enjoy that driving experience 4. BMW 640d - claustrophic 5. Mercedes E350 - I'm not that old just yet ... ! 6. Maserati Ghibli (and any Maserati, to be honest) - all show and no go 7. Hyundai i30N - doesn't have the quality feel 8. BMW X6 - can't get past it's hideous looks 9. Ford Focus RS - it's not enough of an upgrade, and my Jaguar seats are far superior So for now I'm thinking about keeping the XF until the wheels fall off. Let me know what you decide to do? Thanks for watching! And spread the petrolhead word ...

This an excellent review. I am taking delivery of a Sportbrake and will use the videos to learn the controls. Thank you great review.

I've owned my 2012 2.2 Premium luxury saloon for 2 years now and despite working in a job where I drive all sorts of vehicles every day, there's still not a car I've driven I'd rather have over my Jag. A Jaguar is a car for life.

Yes it's hard to replace. I thoroughly enjoyed my XF. Thanks for watching! Spread the petrolhead word...

Honest question here. This older generation XF, or a 2018 (pre-facelift) XE?

XF, all the way.

@@journeyofapetrolhead Post the 2015 Facelift XFS, everything Jaguar made became "German-esque". It Jaguar lost the finesse and design language that they were loved for in the original XFs (09 - 15). They're not bland and boring inside. They've become "just another car" whereas before they were 'Jaguar', they were 'special'. Even the sound systems got downgraded; Bowers & Wilkins traded down to the Meridian system 🤷. So yeah, XF S 2010 - 2015 ALL THE WAY!
