2011 Jaguar XK consumer reviews

I purchased this car about 6 years ago (5.0 n/a XK). From a design perspective, it still holds up and looks modern. I actually like the looks of the base models as they don't have all of the side skirts and aero that change the lines of the original design a bit. The front was slightly redesigned in 2012 and looks a little more aggressive. Performance is great, end the sound of the engine when you get on the gas is addictive. Heated/Cooled seats with 16 way adjustments are great. Back seat is good for some soft luggage. I don't put a lot of miles on the car, but besides yearly oil changes my main cost has been tires. The 20" wheels & tires on this car look great... but stay away from potholes if you can. If you can get the car with 19" wheels... do it... they have some more sidewall. I've replaced both front tires due to pothole hits splitting the sidewalls. If you can't get the 19s, get a road hazard plan when you buy tires. The only other complaint is the touch screen. It is very outdated and slow... only saving grace is that it supports usb mp3 playback (no bluetooth music... only calls). There is not a ton of aftermarket add ons for these cars (exhaust and wheels) and if you get into an accident in an old one, don't be surprised if your car gets totaled out for even seemingly minor damage due to the cost of aluminum body repair. I love this car for roadtrips with the wife, and weekend drives... but I have a Subaru for driving the kids and bad weather.

My daily driver with comfort , looks and performance,, cant beat it for the price. Nothing in its class for the money and you get looks everywhere you take it.

I'm now a Jaguar enthusiast! Vroom vroom so sexy - so far all good - use great gas - lots of it lol - keep oil fresh and the mechanic says if I "listen" to the computer and STOP driving if anything comes up on that screen I'll go for 200k.

Performance is unbelievable and the comfort is Stella. Best car for the money. The way this car hold the road is much better then a Corvette and a much better interior.

Very good styling but navigation leaves much to be desired. The car handles much nicer and is more ch more responsive that my previous 2002 XKR.

The over all design of this car is stunning. From the smooth aggressive lines to the ultra luxurious interior the XK is a one of a kind. If you want the full super car experience you will need to buy the R model that is super charged and almost scary with power. The R has a sports mode and a race mode to change the shift points and tighten the suspension. It's an amazing thrill to sit behind the wheel of this car.
