"This Jaguar XJ8 is superb in every way"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Under warranty my dealer replaced a front air spring unit which was noisy.

General comments?

This Jaguar XJ8 saloon is frighteningly fast! Everything about it is first class: the fit, finish, the wood, leather, the comfort, ride, handling, POWER, smoothness, silence, quality of materials.

I have owned many Jaguars (as well as BMW and Mercedes) and this is the best of all. The car has that timeless elegance that makes every Jaguar instantly recognisable and always desirable.

The quality surpasses that of its rivals in every way. The technology packed into this Jaguar is astounding, but it is extremely driver-friendly and intuitive. Now, if only Jaguar did some advertising...

I own a 2004 XJ8. It has a rattle coming from the front end. Tell me about the front air spring unit causing the rattle. Please I need help. Thank you.

I have had my 2004 XJ8 for 18 months, it is just a marvelous car, only one unexpected expense so far, a line running to the transmission cooler had a small leak, apparently a problem with our winter cold, cost to replace $800.00 CDN. It gets great gas mileage. 9.4 litres per 100km according to the on-board computer, with a lot of stop and go driving and not as much highway driving as I would like. I can't help smiling at it almost every time I see it and just about every single person who has seen it loves it. It is quiet and comfortable, but with incredible power whenever I want it, plus it takes the corners like a smaller sports car. It is an incredible used car deal, I almost feel guilty about it!
