JAGUAR XF SALOON Review
Review vehicle: Jaguar 5.0 V8 XFR Supercharged

The hottest XF yet and Jaguar's fastest ever four-door saloon. Supercharged BMW M5 rival comes with the firm's latest blown 5.0-litre V8 engine, producing over 500bhp, along with high tech adaptive damping and a limited slip differential. Near 60k price tag.

What's hot

• Unsurprisingly, the performance: 0-60mph in 4.9 secs...
• ...and huge shove in every gear thanks to 625Nm of torque
• Lovely V8 rumble under power, whisper quiet when cruising
• Six-speed auto is super smooth, paddles are great fun
• Adaptive Dynamics sharpens steering, suspension and throttle...
• ...results in amazing agility, direct steering and huge grip
• Ride is simply superb despite 20-inch alloys
• Cabin beautifully built, sumptuous leather throughout

What's not

• Rather thirsty at 22.5mpg combined
• ...and 292g/km CO2 means an ECO scheme is needed...
• ...or a good personal lease deal
• Front lights still look too much like a Lexus
• Depreciation likely to be terrifying

Road Test Rating
The XFR is everything that a flagship Jaguar should be. It's enormously rapid but incredibly refined, great fun on a twisty road but just at home on the motorway. It's a brilliant all-rounder and currently the best performance saloon on sale BMW M5 and Mercedes E63 AMG included.
