It suddenly occurred to me the other day that the Jag XJ has been out for must be two years now, yet I never see any, ever!

It looks a great car, so where are they all?

I saw one in the car park and a a couple on the way into work this morning.

They look awesome in dark colours, one of the ones I saw was in 'recession' white, a colour that lets that stunning body down somewhat.

They're like 80k aren't they?! Might have something to do with it.

I have seen quite a few! I see a black fully loaded suercharged V8 quite often and wonder why people would spend double on a Bentley or a Rapide!?

I've seen a few on the road, the looks are growing on me, but I still prefer the "classic" look XJ

+1 see quite a few round the Green Park/Piccadilly area. Although also seen a few out and about too. Still not 100% convinced by the new Jag styling though.

china

had a tour around the factory a few months back including the XJ production line. something like 90% of cars being made on the line were for export, mainly china even though they cost something like $200,000 there.

I see loads of em, and loads of XFs. I think the 'base' XJ is £50k? Lovely, lovely car inside - outside not so much

I see at least one a day on my travels to and from work.

Infact, this morning's example was an XJL in white. Good lord those things are huge...

Guess I'm just not moving in the right circles then.

Good to know people are buying them, I really like them.
