Brilliant car and a credit to the previous owner! If only everyone took that much pride and care with their cars.

Matt, I bore your advice in mind when we bought our XF last month. We, too, bought the Premium luxury, checked it out on an online data service (not one quite as thorough as Car Vertical but close enough). A 2009 for £3, 800, which you may think was too cheap, but, as you always say, hold back a couple of grand for fixing what needs fixing, and we knew what was needed. It's cam belt was done, we knew, but not the gear box service, so that was the first job done. It's booked in for everything else that needs to be done which pretty much accounts for the two grand. So effectively just under 6 grand, though I have to say I'd rather have paid what we paid and made sure we got the jobs done ourselves than pay out more and trust that the jobs had already been done. And we love it. It's my fourth Jag, and I don't get why so many people - who obviously haven't had one - insist they are not reliable. Only if they aren't looked after. And we still have some change to buy some 'werthers originals'.

Before buying a 3 year-old Boxster back in 2006, I paid for a full pre-purchase inspection [around 400, I think, so expensive - but worth it]. Car was mint and had been well looked after. I followed suit during 2 years of ownership, before moving it on; the report was helpful when selling. Skip to 2011, I received a call from the 4th owner who'd just bought it [found my number on the report], to say 'thanks for looking after the car so well.' I wonder if a car that's had a good start creates a feeling of obligation in future owners to keep it tip-top!

I’ve been watching your videos for many years Matt.
This is the first time I can remember a vehicle that was in good condition and properly maintained.
The previous owner, definitely looked after this vehicle very well.
All of the service history etc…
Sadly, it’s very rare nowadays, as shown by your recent videos, for people to keep their car well maintained and in good / clean condition etc, particularly when it’s a 12 year old vehicle.
Love the XF
They look great
Really glad u had a win, and made a good profit, quickly.
👍

Just found this channel this week and I’m addicted already 😂

[howie]

As a XF owner myself (who also keeps their receipts in a binder 😀) that video was a joy to watch 👋

[iainmacleod]

What a result. You are correct about Jaguar owners, we are passionate about the marque. I have owned four examples right from a 1962 Mark 2 through to the modern examples.

[NigelR-Ambienfinity]

Very stylish motor. I always like the end of the videos when the car in question goes from duckling to swan, but this was tidy to begin with - neatest car I've seen you pick up.

I've owned a 2013 XF since 2019. Beautiful inside and out, black with cream interior.

[lukewokeywoos]

Matt these are such classy cars you got me into these beauties. But for me now being a family man i must say they nailed the design with the estates as well. Love your passion for the brand and restoring/giving a new lease of life to the car. For a new owner to hopefully do the same and sustain it’s quality!

Also still rarely skip your adverts either!

[GuitarCinemaOfficial]

I've owned a few of these over the years. Fantastic cars. The XF-S I had was an absolute rocket ship, less than 6 seconds to 60mph and 600nm of torque got me in trouble many a time...

[Enlightened-WOLF]

i have 2011 xfs black on black with the same wheels tuned 320bhp paid £5000 2 years ago off a dealer and i love it

[scousecats]

I bought a Jaguar XJ (2011) last November and it has cost me a full service, new battery, air con regassed, 2 front wheels, wheel alignment, 2 front wishbones and a gearbox service. I used Car Vertical before buying too as your video on the XJ convinced me to buy one! Despite the cost I wouldn't change a thing. After an XF for the wife so this video might just change her mind, thanks Matt, great content as always.

I've had a couple of these, 2.7litre and 3.0litre Portfolio.
Looked after them and used specialists.
They're super quick and smooth and the engine and transmission is among the best, the economy is decent too considering the performance.
Great video! 👍🏼

[alexandruilea]

It so cool to see a car this well kept. It really shows that any car can be relieable if you take care of it

[footballekstraklasa]

Probably the most well kept car I have seen on the channel. Kudos to the former owner!

[Tahvyy]

Nice, I just recently purchased the predecessor of this, the S-TYPE R. Which has made me watch videos on this XF and then yours popped up 🤔🤩.

[S.Y-a-ok]

Still got my XF S, Premium Luxury 09, bought off the back of the first video you did. I love it more every time I drive it. 😉
The sound system was an extra in this trim, another bonus as well as the roof lining.👍
Be Well.

[HussainMubeen]

Owned the XF myself (facelift model 2.2 LE), up until 150K on it. Didn't miss a beat and didn't have any issues aside from the rear door latch knackering out which is common on JLR products. Always serviced well (i tend to use Mobil1 or Castrol oil/Brembo brakes/Bosch Filters as a rule of thumb), and it never put a foot wrong. Amazing car, and do miss it!

[glennob]

You can tell it’s the S by the sports seats. They are the same as the R. Also it’s not the extra 25hp that makes a difference it’s the torque, another 100nm over the non s.
