Reviews SummaryIt’s entirely understandable if, off the top of your head, you can name only two luxury car brands. Mercedes and BMW are the most recognizable, because they’re all most Americans buy when $700 monthly payments and $3,000 property taxes are of absolutely no concern. Then there’s Jaguar. In 2014, Mercedes and BMW each sold more than 330,000 cars. Jaguar barely registered 16,000. So the flagship XJ—a beautiful, rich, stunning machine that actually costs a good deal less than the S-class or the 7 Series—is a rare sight on the road. We’re not sure why, but we’re here to inform you that it exists and very much deserves your attention if you’re sailing such high seas. | |
Reviews SummaryThere’s nothing subtle here, no effort to be practical. It’s a sports car with two seats, a small trunk that will fit only a day’s worth of groceries, and a high price tag. It is worth every single penny, and really, you can stop at the grocery store daily, because this is so much fun you’ll want to drive it as much as possible. | |
