Jaguar XJ 2008 Overview

The XJ remains the luxury flagship of the Jaguar range. It is a truly handsome large car, with elegant lines rather than the random curves of its German rivals. The XJ-Series comes in regular and long-wheelbase versions, depending on model. While the sportier option would be the standard-wheelbase models, the long-wheelbase models offer enough rear-seat room to recline and watch a movie while having lunch on a tray. The Jaguar XJ8 was launched as an all-new model for 2003, along with the high-performance XJR, offering superior ride and handling to their predecessors thanks to their rigid lightweight aluminium structure and computer-controlled suspension. Other model variations include the XJ6, the XJ8 Sovereign and the Super V8. Engines include the 3.0-litre V6, the 3.6-litre V6, the 4.2-litre V8 and the supercharged 4.2-litre V8, all mated to a six-speed automatic. Standard are leather upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone climate control, alloy wheels, and an eight-speaker stereo with CD player. Available features include self-leveling air suspension, adaptive suspension damping, dynamic stability control, xenon headlamps, navigation, power-adjustable foot pedals, an electronic parking brake, and reverse park assist. Safety features standard on all models include frontal, side-impact and side-curtain airbags, ABS brakes and electronic stability control. The cars were facelifted in 2007 with a mildly-new front end.

Reliability
Resale Value
Known Problems Clonking suspension on tight turns apparently normal. In pre-2007 models, battery may go dead in a week if not driven, due to an electronic control module that doesn't turn off. Various water leaks possible through headliner, driver's side floor and rear trunk. Minor electrical issues, including warning lights turning on for no reason. Aluminium body repair expensive. Steel rivets on aluminium body prone to corrosion in wet weather.
