Bet you more readers of PH run diesel than petrol these days.
The classified advertising which pays for the site currently has more diesel cars than petrol for sale.

PH's ad customers aren't all PHers by any means. A lot of people and businesses now list here the same as they do on Autotrader etc.

I reckon the XF sales tell a different story unfortunately. I agree the German seem to tweak their designs. Design is subjective but for me Jag still hankers after some classical image of automotive design. I'd love to see something a bit sharper to reflect what they've done under the skin.
The new XF has only just come out, give it a chance. The old one, good as it was, was still based on the Ford DEW98 (I.E. Lincoln LS/Ford Thunderbird/Jag S-type) platform. Jaguar tried radical with the X351 XJ, and while I like it, a lot of people don't. That part of the market has conservative tastes.
