The XJ has got to be the MOST under-rated line on the planet. I think it's a truly great car in all respects and comes in a variety of trims and wheelbase options to suit a variety of tastes.
The Super V8 is especially a good value, I think, compared to the aging top-of-the-line S-Klasse models and the sketchy new 7-Series.
Damn, Jag really deserves more props for the new XJ variants.
