pretty much every car model has a forum site. just google xf owners forums and browse that for info.

I work at a Jaguar dealership the 09-10 (first generation) are not reliable. People buy the because they are jaguars and they are affordable but they are always in for water pumps, brakes, etc etc the prices are not cheap either, rear pads are like 275. water pump is about 350 this isn't including labor. What year is he planning on buying?

I guess it depends on how you take care of it and luck of,the draw. Dude at my gym has one 2010 and he said he hasn't had any problems that aren't normal stuff anyway.

The thing is if ur buddy plans to buy a jag he shouldn't be worrying about what it costs to own.

If that's the case he should buy a Honda


People buy nice cars because they can afford to fix them up or lease them so they don't have to deal with it.

Car is sick tho and I hope ur buddy gets it.

actually any smart person would research the cost to own of any car including a Honda.

Yeah if ur a practical person. With that argument NO ONE would buy a luxury vehicle then because they can get something cheaper more efficient.

But that's not what people do. They spend money for the LUXURY.

XJ or nothing imo. The XJ shyts all over the XF.

Its a little more but here is one for $32k.

Check out this 2012 Jaguar XJ on Autotrader

Getting luxury shouldnt mean having to get a POS that will always be in the shop though. A Lexus GS is just as nice and is as reliable as a Camry

I would definitely look at something else. XF is just not a good car. Weak residuals, bad reliability, plain looks. One of the worst in its class.
