JAGUAR XF 4.2
WHAT AN ENGINE AND WHAT A GEARBOX
- and yes, we like the design
// New big cat saloon
// Brilliant engine, great steering
// …but it is not as precise as BMW
// New design language – and a lot of discussion
THE NEW BIG Jaguar XF saloon is a really new car. Brand new design language. But is it too new – does it look like a Jaguar at all?
The discussion is now and then sharp. But we like the looks of the new cat – we like it a lot.
Follow sportscartesting.com on our favourite roads driving the new V8 version of the XF– the 298 bhp V8 without the supercharger.
