    They only sold *250* of these in the US, it's rarer than a Porsche 918 or an XJ220.

    They also cancelled the XJ - one of Ian Callum's greatest designs

      Fr I've been so obsessed with the XEs, XFs, and XJs designs ever since I saw them. They're a bit like BMW, but also in a different way, but it works so well

    I really like the XF but I didn't even know a wagon existed. It does look really nice, way nicer than it's reliability...

    Been a huge fan of the XF design ever since it came out. XFR One of the best looking saloons of all time for me. Makes a cracking wagon as well.

    This design looked contemporary to me as I heard you say the car was old, more beautiful than most modern cars.
    Thank you for the video!

    I honestly had no idea that this car was sold in the US. Now I wonder if you could somehow get your hands on an XE SV Project 8, which still holds the record of being the fastest sedan around the Nurburgring. Also, just like Audi, silver trim on Jaguars also look pretty good since it's not shiny, it's a solid silver color.

      The project 8 was sold in the States too. You can find them on auto trader by filtering by cylinder. People want crazy money for them though.

    hi buddy, I believe you have considered making videos upon modified cars ( body kits ) from companies like Brabus, Mansory , Larte etc. Do you have any plans to do so in near future? As some of the companies are really changing the design world and we all would love to hear your take on the same . Warm wishes. You are doing a great job. Keep it going.

    I've owned my XF Sportbrake since new. Winter (2018) Same Carpathian grey paint with black 20 in. wheels, But with Black and red leather seats. I love it as my Weekender. only 21,000 miles. I Had the center resonator removed (and saved) just to give the car the sound it should have had from the factory!

    Supercharged? thought they was turbo? As far as I am aware Jaguar only fit a supercharger on the 5ltr petrol models. You are correct though they are a good looking car.

    • @bikeski970
      @bikeski970 9 місяців тому

      it's a supercharged 3.0 v6.

    Please Jag make a version of the X ES but in a stubby hatchback/notchback similar to Corrado lines.

    Because they made less of these then the I-Pace or whatever their SUVs are called. They are rarer, so cost more, and since the SUVs are more common, dealerships most likely have them in the lot, so they might even give you a discount (as these were sold pre-pandemic). And for on average 1.5 times the money you get a wagon that's "less practical" then an SUV. Wagons don't sell in the US in general because the manufacturers make them unbuyable. The RS6 is also cool, but is it 100k cool, when for 25k you more you can get an RSQ8 which is basically an Anus/Benteyga/Cayman Turbo GT?

    Wagons wont sell both becuase of stupid mentality of people in US shaped by manhfacturers and their marketting in last 20 years and stupid law that rewards suv and pickup production and slaes and being too lenient on the epa requirements for these. Pricing is just stupid and reverse of what it is in europe. SUV is veaper for these stupid reasons instead of other way around.
