2001 Jaguar Vanden Plas XJ 8 review from North America
"I'm in love with this car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The passenger-side seat belt retractor failed.
General comments?
So far this is the finest car I've ever owned. It is quick and the ride is wonderful with none of that BMW harshness. It corners flat.
However there is some suspension noise on rough roads.
