I have lost confidence in this car due to the frequent electrical faults and failures due to the overcomplicated electronics and high battery consumption. Also the lack of room below the front seats of this mode rendered this car despite its's 5meter length very uncomfortable for our rear seat passengers on our long journey to Europe and elsewhere! I understand after my complaints the mnufacturer has modified the rear foot space in their latest XJ models!

Astonishing value : £500 for a very tidy Jaguar XJ40 3.2S with 100,000 miles,a year of MOT and 4 months of road tax.The only problems have been minor electrical ones - 2 blown fuses and 3 bulbs.Shame about the fuel consumption,compared to modern Jaguars - 20-25mpg,but that's been the only cost in a year of trouble-free luxury motoring.

I have to admit that buying a Jaguar Sovereign was a bit of a daunting concept, but turned out to be the best idea I could have come up with.
Excellent reliability, surprisingly low maintenance costs and acceptable fuel economy together with the expected sense of occasion have maade for a superb ownership experience.

It is the best car I have every had and I have had BMW 7 and Audi A8. A couple of anyoing problems but the way the car drives makes you forget these things.

The car for its year is emaculate and drives like a new car with no body or mechanical problems.

Excellent - a much better choice than German brands which have proved to be very unreliable

A quality car with average build quality support by a very poor franchised dealer!
