I leased a new XJ in 2015 for 3 years and I was 34-35 at the time. One of the nicest cars I have had. No issues in 3-4 years, basic service and returned my lease without issue. I had a preowned S-Class before which is often the benchmark for this segment and loved both cars. I would say to ignore the mainstream sentiment and opinions on these type of cars....it is often passed on by people who have barely sat, let alone driven the car.

Nowadays I appreciate the design, especially the bravery and daring to break the traditional mould.

As a avid Jaguar enthusiast, who still owns the legendary X 300 model ( mine is a 1996 Jaguar Xj Vanden Plas), I will say definitely worth to buy the featured Jag in this video. Just like the X 300 took Jaguar into the 1990s with its sleek design, this car is worth every penny. I am proud that my old cat still holds its British legendary pedigree of true Jaguar craftsmanship. My engine 4.0 Inline 6 ( AJ 16) is pushing almost 300,000 original miles. This is the best car I ever owned and, I am looking forward to keep buying more future classic Jaguar models. Did I say that my Jag is my daily driver? Yes it is, and I am proud to drive it every day.

Lovely. Enjoy

I was very much in the "Appalled" camp when I heard they were doing away with the older XJ styling, and particularly the wood dash, which just seemed too iconic to lose. Its not a Jag without a wood dash or so I thought at the time, it had elegance that this new interior seemed to lack. But over the years since I have come to appreciate the more modern styling and now, I think the modern interior is stunning.

Iv'e always loved the XJ shape jaguars, especially the one prior to this, which was the best incarnation of all the other previous XJ6 designs. This new model is beautiful to look at from every angle, and is currently my favourite Jaguar to date. Thanks for the review, I knew you would speak highly of it..I might get one, one day...

Watching this for the second time in Aug 2020, saw it when you originally posted it, from 10,000 to 61,000 subscribers now, that's some going in that time, well done! I had a series two XJ some years ago & have been a Jag fan ever since, the XJ351 has been with us for over a decade now & still looks amazing, they got it spot on with this car. Love your videos, they form a valuable reference library for prospective buyers & the dry Northern wit.. ..

This car has not aged at all, you could stick a 71 plate on this car and a random passer by would be absolutely none the wiser.

We have 2 silver XJ L (2015/17) in our fleet at work, great car to drive, handles well and plenty of power. Really stands out from crowd compared to our Mercedes as there’s not that many about.

I have a 2012 XJ. Bought it one year old. It was company owned then. It has done 46000 km in 7.5 years. Really no issues with it. It works well and is very relieable. I previously had an XF and it wasn't so good. Many electronical issues.

Thanks for this amazing material! I'm a huge fan of Jaguar, and from the first model to the last one ,I just loved all! Very beautiful and stylish cars!

I have had this car since Mathew at High Peak, sold me the XJL in 2019. I have driven Lexus LS and Mercs - Bentley's. This car is just so refreshing to be in, very powerful more like V8. You just sit back and enjoy life. One of the best.

I have an XJL 2013, AWD 3.0 in Maine. I love it. I believe if you take care of the car, it will take care of you. Keep up with service records, gas = Premium, and car wash 2X a month at least, especially in the Winter. It handles well. And did I mention you're sounded in Leather and wood? Every seat is spacious and welcoming.

I was going to buy one of these but went for the XF (after watching your XF video). Not disappointed with my choice as I went for the 3.0D S which is supremely comfortable and when needed goes like an absolute rocket. I agree totally with your comments that Jaguar makes you feel "special" every time you get in it, no other car I've owned has done this, and I've owned a few. Love your videos, watch all of them, even the cars I have no interest at all in. Keep going. All the best.

I absolutely love the new XJ. The new subseries that came about in 2016. In good long roads it is a masterpiece. As Jeremy Clarkson once said about it: "The S-class may be a comparable limo to this but an S-class doesn't stop and go and steer anywhere near as good as this". I know the Germans rule in car tech but the XJ is the most beautiful one. A head turner for sure. I believe the "facelifted" version has about 5hp more of the 3.0 turbo diesel. Anyways, it's a dream car along with the iconic XK (which Jaguar should bring it back), and I wish the used ones were as cheap outside as they are in the UK. To be honest I wish it was a little wider.

Bought one yesterday. Totally agree with the video.

This is yet more evidence I will use to convince my dad to get one for the family car

I sincerely hope you have managed to persuade your father to buy it! This must be a wonderful car to drive!! I absolutely love it, but my dad would never purchase that because he prefers SUVs and because he used to love Jags but now he can't stand the indian ownership (Tata Motors bought Jaguar and Land Rover back in 2008)

I have a portfolio model and absolutely love it , still has great presence today , wanted one since i first saw one , Both inlet manifolds cracked which is common on them sending it into restricted performance , but were sorted under warranty , other than that its been a great car

Great to hear!

Excellent review. Love the new and the old. Cheers

I used to be a driver for Jag landrover in Birmingham and drove these, the F pace and XL XF''s as well as the range rovers. These were great cars and the jags were fantastic to drive

I do like the xj it looks classy and not common like its rivals

Congratulations on hitting 10k The 'new' xj is a stunning looking car

Old content I know but I didn’t realise how epic this XJ is! Amazed how much in reach this is to someone looking for a luxurious barge. A serious option to a German wafter. Any common problems to look for? Thought I wanted an A7 but now I’ve got some thinking to do….Thanks again Matt, you’re content is so helpful and entertaining 😆

I just love the design of this car and after watching your video I know I am going to change my 2014 XF next year which I have only had for a month lol , to be honest I was just nervous getting a XJ first because it seemed such a big car but after driving my XF I think I will be alright thank you for a great review of this XJL Jaguar

Another great review,i agree with everything you said about the XJ., in fact, i think they are the used car bargain of the Century,even better than the XF

I agree! Thanks for watching! :)

I could see 007 driving modern XJ driving HM down Pall Mall, being chased by someone driving Merc S Class, Audi 7 or BMW 7! Remember Top Gear Racing Sun the Sunset on Coast of Cornwall to next days Sunrise to East Anglia Coast in the Modern XJ. Making me wish i could just rent it for a week and Go for a drive!

Just bought myself an 02 xj8 and I love it!!!!

I purchased a ultimate black xj supersport 2011.Here in United States of America ,all you will see is Chevy camaros,challengers,and mustangs.This jag being a 8 year old car is a extreme head turner.I had bankers,and friends wanting to purchase it from me.The compliments come from older men and woman,younger men and woman ,from bikers to muscle car collectors.The makers of the new xj did something very right!

You have a head turner of a car, keep hold of it.

Love my 2010 Portfolio! I have had a few of the common issues after owning the car between 77 and 100k miles, intake manifolds are a biggie on the AJD-V6, before 2013 I believe they crack and cause restricted performance. Both replaced are around £1400, i've had the alternator fail too, but its a small price to pay for a car this good. Fit some Michelin Pilot Sport tyres and it is genuinely more chuckable down a B-road than my previous car, a 208GTi despite the 2+meter body extension!!

Would I consider buying a brand new XJ 350 if it were available? If it was updated with internet, semi auto drive, adaptive cruise etc then yes if it was under £30k. The shape and driving position, ride comfort is exactly what I want . The latest Jags are beautifull but the old XJ's were perfect !

Wow, everyday is an education watching your car reviews.

Love your review. I am looking at purchasing this car right now. You are great help to people who are looking at great second hand cars.

Love my XJ!

Totally understand why Jaguar did it. It was the same when Jaguar replaced the E-Type with the XJS. Most Jaguar owners thought they'd walked into a horror movie, with the XJ's looks. Having driven a V12 XJS, I can tell you how fabulously quiet it is, and a stunning ride quality. Oh and the looks? The XJS looks wonderful. That XJ you're driving will improve with age. Like all Jaguars. 👍

Proudly having a 9-year-old 3.0 petrol. Planning to buy the 5.0 V8 as well. No failures, super cool cars.

Just watching a few your older videos Matt and I love the XJ. Wonderfully smooth to drive and glide along! 👌in fairness as you know, we both like most JLR products, especially the perfect Range Rover a truly class act 👌👏👍
