- Why A Used Jaguar Is Cheap (So I Bought One)
There are 4 big reasons used Jaguars are great to look at in the used market, because it's those reasons that keep them cheap and great to buy!

Great vid! I saw the F-Type launch video up at the Jaguar proving ground test track in October 2012. Promised myself there and then I'd own one one day. Bought the V8R AWD convertible in April 2019. It was 3 years old, low mileage, full OEM service history and paid 48% of the sticker price with a 2 year extended Jaguar warranty. I can't ever see myself selling. A last hurrah of sensory overload. Nothing compares to visceral feeling of roof down, cold start and the cat destroying 3k rpm throttle tap!
Absolutely great comment and can’t agree more. Mesmerizing cars.
I've owned two or more Jags simultaneously throughout the last 25 years and other luxury Marques mixed in and there's nothing like owning a proper Jag.Period
@@lyleg.9192 Cause its a jaaaaag
JAGG 🔥🔥🔥😈😈😈
Nice but coupe looks better
All I can say is I’ve driven jags for the passed ten years. Absolutely love em. The genuine daily enjoyment I get from just being in the thing is massive. Absolute bargain to buy . Why the put down thumbnail ? All used prestige cars can be expensive to repair and are relatively cheap to buy. Keep your Mercs and Audis I’ll have a jag any day .
absolutely true
JAGG 🔥🔥😈😈😈
whats the avg cost to maintain a F-Type R?
@Ernie H An Oil change doesn't cost a few hundred at all.
Hi Stephen haywood yes I do absolutely agree with you ..but most cars are expensive to repair..but like yourself I wouldn't won't a Mercedes or b.m.w always had jags but if you look after your car and service regularly..I've never really had much problem with my cars..so I know that a full service is quite expensive but in the long run I think anyway it looks after its self only my opinion Stephen..but like yourself I do love my xf...thank you Stephen have a nice day.
Had a jaguar regularly through my 42yrs of driving. The pleasure they bring to driving is something no other car can do
agreed
It's an Indian brand now not interested
You need to get out more, but not in a Jag.
My wife and I bought a 2017 F-Type SVR in April.
We bought it as a mid 50s YOLO purchase for half of the original $130k sticker price with a one year CPO warranty through 2023.
Free maintenance and oil changes made this purchase a no brainer.
This 575hp beast manufactures smiles every time we drive it, seriously, you can’t help but smile when you drive it.
We are not wealthy people by and means but when we look back at our lives, we want to have more memories than dreams.
If you ever bring your beautiful car in a truck scale could you please let me know the weight and weight distribution of the SVR? I've found several sources stating from 50/50 up to 54/46, can't really understand
I am on my fourth Jaguar and I have not had a significant problem with any of them.
Which ones have you had! I’m on 2 ❤
In 2019 I purchased a 2015 F-Type for $48,000. The original owner took all of the depreciation, and I got a great car at a good price with only 19,000 miles on it. I love the F-Type and have had no issues since I purchased the car. The key is to NOT buy one of these new, but wait for someone else to take the hit on the depreciating value before you buy. Then, all you have to do is enjoy the ride.
It's a bummer these depreciate so much. Good for used car buyers though.
Facts
would an 09 xf premium luxury for 12.900 be a good buy? bout 120,000 on it
@@shay3514I wouldn’t that really high miles plus look around I saw some with the same price with a lot lower miles on auto trader or craiglist. Wait and look around good ones come on the market regularly
I’ve run an XF for 12 years and it has been faultless. Look after them and change the oil regularly - it is perfectly possible to do it yourself. The problem you highlighted has always been the case - they get bought by people who don’t have the cash or inclination to look after them.
I now have a new F Pace and it is without doubt the best car I have ever owned in 51 years of car ownership.
Youre not actually adressing the points about the more electrical issues - doubt you can fix these problems yourself?
@@paulbird1808 All modern cars have electrical issues, the more electronics the more the issues. Does it matter if say your electric seat heater is not working or some other electrical gadget you can do without? As he pointed out Jag is not the flavour of the month right now that is all, they are comparable to the competition. The worst car ever built was the VW beetle but it had cult following. The early ones were cold, gutless no where to put any luggage but they sold.
you can change the oil all you want on the 5.0 V8, that POS is junk
@@GoogleUser-dy2rr meanwhile you drive a what...
Thanks for confirming these aren’t just for old people…
I’ve had 6 Jags & they’ve all been very reliable. My favourite was an 01 XJR, the only thing I had to spend money on was the rear active shocks £500 because they rattled slightly and it annoyed me and a bit of paint elsewhere. The most reliable was an 07 XK 4.2, a few electrical gremlins were solved with a decent battery. Absolutely nothing else needed, I would still have it today but I sold it to buy a house.
I agree Peter. They are a lot better than many give them credit for. X type is a mess but many others are ok. It’s just the cost of service that scares.
i got a 3.5t portfolio limited edition and my brother has a 640 but he likes driving my car
I got an 07 xk in September and love it to bits
My father had a v8 f type for a bit. Hell of a car. Fast of course but the thing that sticks with me is just how well it handled, like it was on rails.
Bought my first Jaguar when I was 26 - Thirty five years ago! Have had 6 or 7 over that time. Always found them reliable, whether new or used. Had lots of other marques over the years, but always come back to Jaguar......
Hi Chris Penn.. this sounds exactly what iv done I had to when I was 26 and me to I'm on my six jag...and I did have a Daimler and I had it seventeen years and I didn't spend much money on it at all now I have a lovely xf which I love and next year I will get a much newer one ..love jaguar's always have done...I won't want anything else..thank you Chris have a lovely weekend..
I bought my first Jaguar at 45. I'm in my 50s now and still own it. I'd definitely buy another Jaguar.
Bought a 2006 4.2 NA XK about 3 years ago. Nothing significant to report besides a few little electronics gizmos. Pretty darn reliable for a 17 y-o car! And boy is that thing absolutely gorgeous and classy in and out! Just love it. Oh and I paid only about 20% of the new sticker price for it. 😁
I don't care if they're considered 'old folks' cars'...I'm only 43 and love every minute driving that gorgeous thing with its torquey V8. 😍
I love my Jags and Range Rovers. Did 155k miles in my old XJR have done 127k so far in my current Range Rover. Great value, never had any big issues. Just use a good specialist and avoid the main dealers for servicing.
I've now owned 2 F-Types. My first was a White 16'Coupe. She was bulletproof. My second is a Black Convertible 2019 R Dynamic. The boost from 340 to 380hp was significant enough to make it feel faster. My lease has been extended so I can wait for my new Lotus Emira to arrive...👊💚👊
Some great choices in cars for sure.
Those F Types are absolutely gorgeous. Only the AMG GT coupe is close, but that Jag has a sexiness even that car can't surpass.
@@vig37 I've driven an F-Type and an LC500. They are surprising similar in some ways, including basic shape. Of course, the LC holds its value better.
I’m thinking think of a jag coupe or a cayman or even boxster just something different from a Benz
Are they reliable? I'm going to buy one with 26,000
I bought a new F-Pace when they came out in 2017. Still driving it and still loving it
They are nice
I drove an XF for many years. I bought it used and it had a couple years of warranty left when I got it. By the time the warranty ran out, it was a pretty well sorted car. The regular maintenance was about as much as the Maserati I replaced it with. Hundreds for an oil change and 3k for a full brake job, but it was much more reliable than the Maserati.
If your Jag is out of warranty, do not have it serviced by a Jag dealer. Their service shop is a for-profit operation crewed by 19-year-olds fresh out of school who only know one thing: if it isn’t running right, keep replacing expensive components until it is. This might be acceptable while the car is under warranty, but it isn’t, find an independent service shop that specializes in, or at least knows about Jaguar. If they’re honest, you’ll have affordable reliability for 15+ years.
@@johntechwriter right not no 3k 😂
I have a 2017 Jag XE 35T premium. Had it for 2years now! Absolutely an amazing car! People hate on jags too much but don’t own one.
I totally agree with you. I also have owned my F Type for almost 2 years and love it. The reputation seems to holding from the Jags of old. While they are not perfect, I don’t see the. As any worse than a BMW or Audi
@@ECPP q
You nailed it! I bought a Range Rover for pennies on the dollar. I do my own standard maintenance so I’m always ahead in costs. Beautiful and capable vehicle. Ironically at the LA Auto Show there were hordes of people at Jag, young and old literally drooling over the cars, maybe in real life they don’t feel worthy of ownership?
The 2 most expensive and most likely to cost the most in breakdowns is Land Rover. They are a leaser car at best.
Its more of the stereotype that there is with jaguar being unreliable nightmares and a pain to work on so a lot of ppl tend to stay clear of those. Everyone can appreciate a nice jaguar but not many dare to take a leap of faith into trying to own one
I picked up my 2017 F-Type V6 with 60k for 28k and an extended warranty. You just can't beat that.
I've owned a used Jaguar XJL for two years, and besides general maintenance, I have only had to replace a mass airflow sensor ($150) .. So my cost of ownership has only been $75 per year.. Eh maybe I'm just lucky..
I love the looks of the XJL. Beautiful ride.
@@ECPP I got one..love it...its gorgeous
I used to have a 2017 F Type British Edition and loved it so much. Had many wonderful memories with it. That exhaust noise would bring smiles every time! Enjoy yours!
I have a 2016 XF, which I got after my 2017 XE lease ended. Absolutely love it, and you're right - I got it for a steal. Added a mega warranty for 3K, and I have a car that is fully warrantied until 2025/180,000km. Total win.
Very nice!
What is quite interesting is the comments about the lack of trust and reliability in Jaguars. Yet this channel has covered the very same problem with all German cars, luxury = expense.
100 percent
I have a 2006 XK4.2, i have had it 8 years the only big bills where cooling system and new shock absorbers. it has never let me down so i just keep it as a weekend convertible fun car.
My first car is a 1997 jaguar XK8 convertible, I just bought it the day before yesterday and it was only $6000. As a younger buyer i can confirm i was more interested in mustangs, but then i saw it and it was more luxurious, faster, and had less problems than any mustang GT i could afford. I absolutely love it
I have only owned British cars. Handful of MGs, Austin Healeys, TVRs, Caterham, and Jensens. I’ve had 2 Jags: a 97 XK8 and currently a 2017 XE 35t. Love it!! Something about the style and aesthetic of British motoring that no other country can compete with or strike my fancy in the same manner. I’m a line cook in my 40’s and they have always provided me with immense joy and excitement for a pretty good price
Nice cars with character
Just bought a 2012 XF S 3.0D V6 Portfolio. I absolutely love it.
Gorgeous car 👍. The MK1 LCI XF is the most awesome.
@@zsb707 can’t get enough of it at the minute. Only owned it a week so far but the car is just awesome. !!
@@cb3580 👍👏
I bought a 2001 XK8 11 years ago thinking that I would perhaps keep it for 6 months. I still have it and it still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. It still feels special and it still turns heads. The only major expense I've had is a gearbox rebuild at 126,000 miles earlier this year (same gearbox as used on BMWs). I recently tried an Audi R8. It made a lovely noise, but felt very ordinary to drive.
I owned a 2001 Vanden Plas Supercharged, one of fewer than 250 built that year by Jaguar, and it gave me fantastic reliability and was an absolute blast to drive. The car was at its best when I met my three brothers in Death Valley and we stormed up and down the nearby mountains in 120-degree temperatures, the AC keeping us cool and the engine’s temp never above normal. I will never forgive myself for selling that car.
I have the 1997 xk8 it's just so stylish gotta live thr xk8s
Got myself a very nice 10 Yr old Xf with 38000 mls on the clock . It came with a years warranty and a 3yr service plan. Since purchase 18mths ago, the car has cost me a new fuel filter and sensor, two suspension arms and a set of tyres. The tyres that came with the car were OK, worn more on the rear than on the front but I always budget for replacing tyres when I buy another car anyway. Fuel economy, and this is a 3.0l V6 S , is 45ml-50mpg while cruising and 35-40mpg on mixed driving. Acceleration is 0-60mph in 5.8 seconds.
Do your homework ( as I do on any car that interests me ) and you will have a very nice car with plenty of leather and electronics which drives very smoothly.
Jaguars are a very good car to buy, just take your time and you will be rewarded.
I got a 2017 F-Type SVR. 1-owner car. It had a decent amount of miles on it but it was in very good shape. The original owner definitely drove it HARD and often (lots of track days!) I’ve had to put money into it (all new brakes, new battery, front differential, etc.), but it was all covered under the factory warranty. Considering that it was discounted over 50% from new and I got it from a reputable dealer, I’m not complaining.
Amazing value
I've owned many Jags throughout the years. My first was a 1967 XKE, which I still have, and have owned many XJs and XKs between then and now and also have a newer F-type. Two of the older XJRs I own have over 200k miles on the odometer! Of the 30+ Jags I've owned, only one had issues bad enough to make me want to get rid of it. Maintenance is key. People often buy premium cars and don't factor in the total cost of ownership, so they skip the maintenance due to the costs but then blame the manufacturer when parts/components start failing.
Maintenance is extremely important indeed
That Jaguar F-type is awesome, Mark 👍! I've owned an XF sedan (X250, LCI, 2013) for two years now and I'm really happy with my choice: gorgeous car inside & out, plus it's unexpectedly reliable. You're right about the age though: I bought my Jag at 45, as at 25 I was broke 😊 and when I turned 35 I purchased a BMW 6 Series coupe (E63, LCI, 2010) because back then I wouldn't have considered a Jaguar. I currently own the Jaguar XF & BMW 6 Series and love them both.
Nice. Thanks for sharing. It seems to go with the older age groups. Love the newer Jags though.
I had a 2012 xfr at 510 hp. Drove it for 4 years, what a car. Had to get rid of it due to health reasons 😕 79 this November.
@@williamsokoloskiwilliamsok9544 Amazing car! All the best!
Except it was convertible
Just bought a 2016 XF s. Im 40 but I have always wanted a Jag. All the reviews and road tests made me sure i got the right one. I love having the only one around.
I've owned my 2009 XKR Portfolio for 10 years now and it's by far the best, most reliable and fun car I've ever owned. To me it's still one of the most beautiful cars that I've ever seen. The brakes on this particular model are crazy expensive, but work amazingly well. All the other parts are pretty average. Oil changes are simple, I do them myself. It is absolutely true that the supercharged V8 engines produce a ton of heat. This destroys the cooling hoses after about 10 years. Those parts aren't very expensive and there is a great forum where you can get help with replacing those hoses. I would recommend this car to anyone who loves beautiful fast cars and isn't afraid to do some work on them. If you have a leather dash, you have to keep it well oiled and use a sun sheild or it will shrink and look terrible. Mine still looks brand new.
Cheers
Bought my 5.0 V8 xf with dash shrunk lol
Great video! I’m 23 and bought a 2011 XJ 5.0 V8. Love it, great car and the dealer gave me a free 3 year warranty too so im not worried
Right on! Beautiful cars.
3 years on an 11 jag ye ok 😂
@@bazstansbie This! I've had four Jags: XF 3.0 V6 & 3 F-Types...buying from a franchised dealer ie approved you get one year thrown in. For a 2011 5.0 V8, a non-franchised dealer will try to get away with a basic 3 month warranty, if you're lucky...& you'll pay big bucks for any extension, probably on a substandard warranty anyhoo.
@@bazstansbie Most likely a typo.. 3 months maybe
We picked up a 2015 XF for dirt cheap to keep at our apartment in DC. With how often we go it’s a bit cheaper than renting a car while in the city. The F-Pace and XF Sportbreak we bought new stay at our main home in FL. We had a 2007 XK8 that ran great until we traded it in for the F-Pace in 2019.
Great video man, where I work my boss have 3 jaguars now, I really enjoy driving them around.
I have had 2 3L XF’s and love them. Not had any major issues to be honest. No oil issues, no breakdowns and great to drive.
Wonderful cars
been playing the jag depreciation game for over 30 years buy at 3years old and hold onto them for a good while, never regretted it yet, i am getting old now so i get the extended warranty wich has proved unnessacary so far , when ever ordinary car owners ride in my xj they oh and arr , i do it for the same price as running a new Toyota every three years so i consider it a great bargain based on the evidence i have intimate knowledge of
A really good breakdown. The most important thing for the advanced enthusiast is to learn that the market is dictated by emotions and impressions rather than facts. So if you're not in it to make money, but simply to enjoy good things for yourself, then that's how you find the bargains: by looking at the dark horses that the masses believe to be a bigger risk. Emphasis on the word believe.
On my 2nd Jag. 1st was a '95 XJ6, current is '08 XKR Portfolio. Both have been reliable. As with anything, keep up maintenance (I do my own so I save quite a bit) and have been a joy to own and drive. My XKR is just a nicer place to be than any BMW or Merc I've driven. Nicer materials. Wood, leather and aluminum everywhere. I've put over 40k mi on my XKR in about 2 years and it is my year round daily.
Currently have a Jag XE. Great car so far, I had an electrical issue which cost £90 to fix by a dude with a laptop.
Car is comfortable and handles well in the Twisties.
Nice compact size for sure but has the classic looks
Great video. Good point about the “old man’s car” image but that doesn’t apply to the F-Type. Here in the UK there are lots of high mileage Jags in good condition so yes they are reliable so long as maintenance isn’t skipped.
Thanks for watching
I drive two jags. Both are 1996 models and I have owned them for nearly 20 yrs. Both have had their issues but in the long run I am very happy with my cars and still get compliments quite often but the biggest reason I drive Jaguars is because of the ride quality. They absolutely don't drive like any other car I have ever driven. Super smooth and quiet but powerful when uou want it.
I've got a 1997 XK8, it's a dream and has never had an issue. Love it to bits!!!
Haha, cheers
Great video, but truth is that nearly every luxury car falls off a cliff resale wise after 5 -7 years, because once they become too old to finance, your only buyers are cash buyers.
Yes, exactly
I just bought a used 2013 XK R with only 25,000 miles on it for less than half what it went for new. Given the low miles and the fact I don't drive very much, I don't foresee too many maintenance issues. These cars really are a steal for what you get, as long as you get them with either a warranty or super low miles (or both).
For sure, that’s a great buy for a nice car
17 f pace 3.5t
Front brakes $1400
Rear brakes $1100
Fuel injectors $3400
Valve cover breather $2400
That's just the last 6 months or so not at the dealership....
We’ve had 2 XJL Rs in the family, a 2014 which we had for a couple years, and now an XJL R575, both have never given any issues, mind you the 2014 was sold with only 55,000kms, and the 575 is currently around 44,000kms (was bought new) Great cars for sure. Drove an SVR ftype before and that’s a rocket, would love to buy a new one but they stopped making the SVR unfortunately
Thanks for the honesty ,you , Scotty,car wizard tell the truth about these modern money pits,take the advice people. It's time to wake up and stop falling for lemon s
The V6 Jaguar XE is criminally underrated on the used market especially a top of the line model with the supercharged V6. Looks, performance and value.
I agree, better than most competitors.
@@ECPP there's also a company that sells an upgraded supercharger pulley, upgraded intake and a tune. End result is an additional 150or so at the wheels for like 3k. It's insane, I have another year left of school and I'm so excited to get one.
You are right on - I just bought a used 2018 XE v6 supercharged AWD r sport. I have had a lot of nice cars - all German, and this car is by far my favorite to drive. The company you referred to is Mina Gallery - and they are the best. Just bought several of their mods (intake, lower and upper pulleys) and if I do the tune, this car will be pushing 450 upwards in HP. Awesome car.
i just traded my c6.5 A6 (3.0T) for a loire blue ‘18 XE S for with 29.6K miles for 39K! ( i was a little upside down on my loan) but when i was given the actual original sticker poster thing of the car, i knew i got a great deal. screw the germans, everyone was blown away when i broke the news lol. i did not do this for status, but the fact no one and i mean no one i know owns one, & for the sheer pleasure of driving dynamics not even my boyfriends S5 can deliver. i’ve had two turbo jettas, 2 A4’s and an a6 and i’m never looking back. i just turned 30 so this was a gift to myself. 11 years of owning audi’s & i am so happy i actually shed a tear when i drove off the lot lol. this is going to be an amazing next couple of years!!!
But how is reliability and maitenence costs?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge 👍👍👍
Thanks a lot for watching
Nice review video as always! I have been struggling whether I should buy a pre-facelift V8 F-Type or a pre-facelift W205 C63s coupe. Any opinion on this regarding running and maintenance costs?
Honestly Mercedes AMG is solid. Especially the N/A V8s. I have a CLS and i do all my own work it's not bad at all
The thing is, nobody in the UK has a V8 5L petrol Jaguar. Literally all the XF models on the road dating back to 2009 are V6 diesel engines between 2L and 3L.
I’ve got a 4.2 V8 xf but they’re v rare. Lovely car
Is it me or do I like the styling of the older Jaguars more than the new ones? The front end of the newer XF model reminds me of a Ford Fusion.
You're right. The MK 1 XF (X250, LCI) looks awesome and special.
Well it's not much to expect from the sedan line
I went with an XFR but yes, this video is spot on, Jaguars can really offer some untouchable bang for performance buck sometimes.
Wowzers!!! This was an informative video. My 2005 Jaguar XJ8L was an extremely enjoyable car to drive but it didn't like Chicagoland's cold weather, so I had been a bit reluctant. Knowing this, I can plan ahead for my next XJL purchase with an engine block heater and a nice cover. Thanks for the information on the extended warranty and the great stats for the haters.
Great video, Mark. The value these used F-Types offer is top of class. I think reason 5 is the typical Jag customer, which is, oh, I don't know, maybe 37% millionaires? That means Jag builds in a lot of slop into the MSRP to take advantage of full price buyers. If you check autotrader for brand new V8 Rs, there is a huge range of dealer offers from low 80s to 120s. So a lot of Jags, due to the maybe 63% buyers, sell new for way less than MSRP. This appears in the used market as depreciation, but its actually just typical new car discounts.
Thanks a lot, yes they are true to the luxury car buyers. Amazing cars nonetheless. I too have seen some variation in new car pricing and even the incentives have been aggressive at times. Have a great week.
I have a 2012 XJL super sport. Never had any issues apart from regular maintenance. Either I lucked out or the perception that they break down often is simply perception. My LR4, BMW 750Li tends to actually have a lot more problems. The most reliable cars I had though was oddly the Escalade and not surprisingly a E class.
Thanks for sharing and yes I believe there are not a lot of surprises there. Modern Jags are a bit pricey for maint and repairs but no worse than most German wagons. The 750 can be a nightmare for many owners. The Escalades are truck based so you can get a lot of miles out of for sure.
Damnn those get like 500hp. Do you race it?
Great video glad I bought my 2014 jaguar f-type v6 convertible excellent car no issues one of the strongest cars I ever had than any other brand.
In the early 2000s, I bought a ten year old Jaguar XJS convertible with 30k miles for $12,000. It was perfect and looked brand new. V12 power and a beautiful drive. Not so much a sports car as a grand tourer. I kept it for a little less than ten years and sold it to a neighbor. I had a few things repaired during ownership, but relatively minor cost over nine years. Interestingly, the cruise control would stop working occasionally. It was because of a small plastic part integral to the mechanical cruise control system. For its size, it was relatively expensive to replace. Using a rubber grommet and zip tie, it was a two minute fix. It seemed the fix would last a year and require a new grommet and zip tie. People would stop to look at the car when out and about and many thumbs up when on the road. Jaguar produced the XJS for twenty years.
For me, the last rue Jaguar was the XJ6. I was brought up in Coventry, England and used to watch the white coated technicians take out every Jag for a test spin down Browns Lane.
If they hadn’t changed and kept up with the competition they wouldn’t be around anymore.
Yes, people often overlooked JLR products. Last year when inventory was plentiful you can snag a slightly used 2018 XE with 50Kkms around $30 grand. Used 2017-2018 F-pace with less than 70Kkms around less than $35-40 grand. People are getting smarter nowadays. We were watching the JLR market and the great XE and F paces are now all sold out on the used market. Check the auto trader and the ones left are the not so appealing ones. And the 2.9% finance on CPO units was a great deal.
By the way, What kind of warranty did you have? Was it JLR CPO or and aftermarket warranty company from dealer? I don’t wanna get screwed and I know that dealer.
Congrats on the new F Type. I they give you a chance, review the 2021-2022 F pace. The interior is gorgeous. “Similar” to a Bentayga.
Hope to see you around.
Great to hear from you, another local enthusiast. My warranty qualified for the CPO which definitely is better, but with that said I have taken my car in for a squeaky pedal box a couple times and always gets “greased”. Only to find squeaking after another few short miles. I have heard of others on forums and in other countries getting a more productive result such as pedal box replace, new rear calipers as they fade, and some have gotten that rusty bottom steel brace replace under warranty.. Also on that note I still love these cars and would do it all over again. Did you happen to see my review on the F Pace in the channel?
All I can say is Mercedes and BMW are worse in upkeep expenses and repairs, they are always in the shop getting fixed, I have friends who work at these dealerships and say they are constantly in the shop, but the owners refuse to tell people that they're always breaking down because they don't want the reputation and they don't want the embarrassment, you can always buy an aftermarket warranty on a jag, like I did, to protect yourself with any future repairs, that is something people forget especially when you buy a used car. Jaguars are absolutely gorgeous cars and better than most of the German Rivals especially those V8 supercharged ones.
I totally agree with you the V8 Jags are just so much nicer than most other competitors
Holy crap. Congrats!! Your Jag is a beast! I’ve been searching for the 380 HP convertible . Wife drives manual so that works if it doesn’t scare the crap outta her. Haha . Hard to find out west in BC lately. Plus price jacked by several thousands. See some avail back east but that’s a challenge. Still looking though.
It’s worth the search to find the right car. Convertible has the best sounds from the drivers seat but the profile of the coupe rules. Great cars in any form.
If I had a 60s, 70s XKE ,I could just park it and look at it all day.
Bought a certified pre-owned 2015 F-Type R back in 2018. It came with a 7 year 100k warranty from new because of it being certified. Still own it, never used the warranty, currently has 39k on it and I have loved every second of ownership. Jaguar has its problems for sure, but generally no worse than other luxury/exotic brands. Most people that talk about Jaguar reliability have really never owned one.
I've been driving Jags since 2009, and they have been GREAT for me and my family. 200k miles is easy to get to, and the maintenance has been mainly just the annual oil change.
They are better these days than many people assume
Great vid. Would like to hear your opinion on the Audi TTS one day.
I’d stay clear of second hand Jaguars. I saw how one nearly bankrupted an acquaintance. Of course, he might have been unlucky
Nah you just gotta have the money to afford a car like this.Also you gotta watch out from the person you buy 1 from cause you right and every Jag i owned be having some kind of damage from the last owner not knowing how to take care of an expensive car like this
Last year I purchased a 2018 Jaguar F Pace Premium 2.5 with 32k miles, it has been trouble free so far. I don't know if I plan to keep it once the warranty ends.
I like the F Pace as well and did a review last year. Wonderful drivers.
first your review while snowing is amazing feels peaceful. secondly that BMW @3:54 is smokin hot.
Thanks so much for watching. Yes that day was not very cold so that’s OL
2015 xf and 2019 xjl collection owner.
Jaaags are special. That's why I own them.
If it's good enough for the Queen of England then it's good enough for me. Yes I bought an X type late model.
Haha, that’s true indeed. Cheer
Next to being married this would be the biggest mistake lol
Haha. Ouch
Driven jags for over 22years, all V8’s all very reliable all great to drive. You can keep the German metal most are soulless.
I love that jaguars, have an unreliable image… That keeps the resale price way down! I also like the fact that you don’t see very many jaguars, pull into a parking lot and everybody’s got the same damn car, and I have the jaguar.
That’s Jag are far more unique which is nice.
I had a serious thing with the E Types of the late 60's and early 70's for 40 years. Last I looked a ground up restoration with swapped out high quality parts was going for $75,000 + at auction US. Outa my ballpark for any vehicle. Been thinking about a ground up build for a 88 or so MR2 Supercharged. Not exactly an exotic but considering that I had a 86 Non Supercharged decades ago And loved it, although I had to buy the best sticky Bridgestones I could buy. Way back A salesman (Toyota) told me that the MR2 Supercharges with an Auto Box was the fasted production car from
0 - 60 at the time. Didn't believe him till later when I had it in the shop for a new battery and was reading Road and Track while waiting. Sure enough the salesman was right. The Toyota engineers must of had it fine tuned for this. The boost was low, around 4 lbs, so was reliable I figure, as mine was. The only thing computerised was the engine management which was just great.👍
Totally thanks for sharing, I also loved the older MR2s both the supercharged and NA . Tons of fun . Love the short shift and the real raw driving experience. I owned a fiat x19 back in the day and it was a similar car but with the nasty Italian reliability issues. Mid engine is always fun.
@@ECPP Back in the day Fiat was noted for having suspensions on par or better than the Italian exotics. Here is a trick I learned decades ago for somewhat sensitive steering - Set the tire inflation psi for the front u to 2 psi lower than the rear tires. Not matter how - just 2 psi down or rear up 1 psi and front down 1 psi. Works like a charm for any vehicle
@@ethimself5064Does that trick work with All RWD, FWD and AWD cars?
@@lukemothug Front and rear wheel, not sure about AWD due to computerised systems.
Can you do a video on your ownership experience with your jag?
You bet I can, but if you search Mark Holubetz on RUclips that is my other channel and that’s my long term chronicle of car ownership.
@@ECPP I am going to do just that. I love your content and it's SOO WELL DONE
@@ECPP Thank you!
I bought a Jaguar F-TYPE s v6 2 months ago, i'm SUPER HAPPY and satisfied with my JAG!
💯🏆
The reasons are quite simple. The British have NEVER build a car that could resist stopping at every garage in town.
Bought a 2003 V8 S-Type from auction. After minor tweakings with different mechanics, took it to dealer for final repairs. When you think luxury, I think Jaguar. Driving that car was amazing and was a beautiful design as well.
Absolutely right
In Uk price of Jags going through roof...hence why i traded mine in for a Audi. Wish i didn't now. Miss my Jag. Much better than the Audi...
I bought a brand new 2013 XF 2.0T, which was the first year of the four banger engine. It broke because of an issue with the turbo plumbing with 68 miles on the odometer in the main entrance to a mall. It took four hours for Jaguar’s roadside maintenance to come and pick the car up. But, I still want another for some odd reason.
They have a charm to them
Just wonder, where do you got that average yearly on Jaguar? JLR move to every 2 years service schedule now. Basic cost cut in half now.
the f type is sucha gorgeous car, we bought a 2.2 xf 2015,they are now selling at higher prices than at that time, i service it myself, the interior is full cream leather and walnut, classy, 8 speed auto, lovely to drive, very reliable engine if looked after
Changing windshield on a yearly basis what planet are you from?
Alberta Canada
Good video Mark! There are lots of good Jaguars out there although I have a leaving towards the saloons Yes, I like the F Type too.
Did I ever tell you I tried Saloon Racing for 12 months in the early 70's? I had a Coombs Special with was a Mk2 Jaguar.
I was rubbish at racing but at least I had a go!
That is great David. Racing is truly living the dream in my opinion. It’s ultimate if a sponsor covers the car and all costs. I have a friend who races for a factory Porsche team and he is slick. I would love to give it a try too.
That 35t engine in the XE you showed is actually built by FORD and has been super reliable. The AWD system and 8 speed gearbox are supplied by ZF. These are all time-proven components. I own a 2017 and will likely just drive it until it dies because it is simply a great car. I had some of the initial Jag niggles with software and a stereo issue, but all sorted long ago. They are not all perfect but if you get a good one they can last a very long time and provide a ton of driving joy.
Thanks very much for sharing
had a xk8, loved it but the warning lights always lit up like a casino, always had a major repair every year, too many trips to the repair shop. Replaced it with an EV, not a single repair or breakdown yet. And no gas! Charge with my solar.
My uncle took his XJ6 Jaguar to the Mojave Desert and shot it 3 times.
Only 3? He must have had a relatively good ownership experience 😂🤬
I have a V6S it looks amazing, sounds, amazing turns heads and been trouble free. But 30K plus isn't cheap in my world lol 😂
Amazing machine
Wonderful cars
"cheap" is used in a manner of speaking, compared to what it costs new, and what the competition costs. I really want a Jaguar XE, the performance and styling you get for like 25 30k is pretty massive. It would cost at least another 10k to get a competitor's vehicle. So yes.. it's cheaper lol
I’ve started off with bmw then to Mercedes but thinking about going to jag. A co-worker of mine loves them and thinks I would love them too. I know little to nothing about them and been doing research and hearing bad things? Any recommendations for these type of cars? I currently own an s class and currently looking for a new toy.
Love the gray defender 110 on the back

Best quote I heard about Jaguars is they unfairly suffer from their old reputation the way Mercedes profits from theirs...I have an XK and could not possibly be happier with the deal I got on it, or how its performed and held up over the last few years.
You bet, Jags are e quite underrated in my opinion
whats the mileage on your XK? and what country did you own it in? Im in NA and am curious about XK ownership out of warranty
@@ewiouhjohn1707 I am in the United States (New England), I bought my car sight unseen from a private party in Florida with 36K on it. I have put about 20K on it. I had to replace a rear window motor (200 bucks - but I put it in). I also had to fix a glove box hinge with epoxy (10 bucks). Previous owner of my car had duckbill and AC fan replaced (common problem - original duckbill would stop opening and cause AC condensation water to flow onto passenger floor - and ruin fan too). These cars will have electrical issues if you do not keep battery charged. Most owners use a battery tender. Not me. I can't go more than a day or two without driving it - I work from home so I do not have to drive anywhere - I just love driving it. Ford owned Jaguar for twenty years when this car was designed and built. It shows. Mine has been very reliable. If you are looking for one, make sure dash leather is not bubbling (this can be fixed - but if it has that issue consider the repair cost in your offer). The car is aluminum so it will not rust, but you can still get bubbles (again they can be fixed). Bottom line - I would buy an XK again in a heartbeat.
@@steven-ui7sz that’s all you had to do in maintenance after 20k?! That’s amazing! WhAt year did you get? And I also work from home and don’t need it for the commute but just want something I love to drive. Thank you so much for your input
Fell in love with the XE and bought one with no thought of BMW or Mercedes. In the US, it’s best to buy from Carmax because they offer a 5 yr extended warranty from the date you buy it and not from date first placed into service.
Good call on the convertible. You can really hear the pops and bangs in their full glory. They’re muffled in the quiet cabin of the coupe.
Very informative video !
That Alaska weather, nice.
Me. I'm buying it😂 Nobody is pulling up next to me in a supercharged xj. 480 stock hp. Dealer maintenance is expensive.... Not if you know people or work on your own vehicle.
True
I would not buy a newer used Jaguar, but can you do the next list of half a dozen, older used vehicles that are still in decent shape and they last forever, please? For example, the 2000 to 2006 GM full-size SUV's and pick-up trucks, the 2005 to 2009 Subaru Legacy and Outback sedan and wagon, the 1997 to 2002 Ford Expedition's with the 5.4 L 2-valve V8 engine, 2003 to 2005 Dodge SX 2.0 (Neon) sedan, 2004 to 2009 Mazda 3 sedan and hatchback and the 2003 to 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer sedan and wagon. Thank you very much.
For sure I can because that is what works for many people.
@@ECPP Agreed. Thanks.
I had the pleasure of driving my friends 2018 F Type S he was in his 2003 Ferrari Modena and she wanted me to keep up with him we drove about 20 miles having lots of fun and it is a day I will never forget and the a gorgeous car
I agree they are wonderful
I've had jaguar's for forty years..and I must say the best cars I've ever had...and I've just got my petrol xfrs..great car...really comfortable very fast and I've never had much of an issue...if you want a second hand car...jag always..great video...
