This is the first video review for a car that I own, so it is always going to be a good review. Having said that, I did point out what is not done well alongside the aspects of the Jaguar that I really like.
The roadholding, power delivery and driving comfort in this Jaguar are my favourite attributes of this car. It can transform from a luxury cruiser into a back-road racer at a moment’s notice, and has become my favourite car I’ve ever owned.
