2007 Jaguar XKR review from North America
"Beautiful car, poor quality and Jaguar USA was unresponsive at best"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car had to be towed 9 times in 12 months.
The battery went dead.
The top got stuck.
The car stopped on the highway three times.
The car had electrical issues; heater, windows, stereo.
The car would not start when the start button was pushed.
Gas cover would not open when the button was pushed.
Trunk would not open when the button was pushed.
General comments?
The car has a beautiful design.
The exhaust has a very nice sound when accelerating.
Back seats are too small for even small children.
The car is light and handles well.
