2017 Jaguar XF Review
Introduction
This is the Jaguar XF in its second generation and it’s a case of ‘do not adjust your set’, as this car looks very similar to the smaller XE within its own stable.

Four trim lines and a choice of forced induction petrol and diesel engines ensure that there’s plenty of variety within the XF family.
