Was only curious because I've always liked Jaguars since a family friend used to own a few. It sure is a sharp looking vehicle though and would possibly think about buying one next winter, however really like the Porsche and Audi SQ5 just as much. Would be a hard decision!
Reliability and Jaguar should not be used in the same sentence.
No, I have never owned one and never will. FWIW, I have been working on cars for a living for almost 40 yrs. Jaguars included.
I think if you are concerned about resale value than a Jaguar is not for you.
Have spent alot of time researching the F-Type sportscar for a purchase. The comments about poor reliability on new models and the ability of TATA to own and improve this line of cars are rubbish.
The F-type has been reviewed very well and highly regarded by their owners.
The reason I quoted the above post is because its true, they depreciate HARD. The 2015 F-Type R has deprecated from $115k MSRP to $75k ask prices on cars.com....yikes

I'd buy an XK.
I've know of an '07 with 10K miles on the clock for $28K!
Beautiful car.

Almost all cars in this price range take a big dump.

To me it sounds like a buying opportunity for the used Jag. Let someone else eat the depreciation. If one is concerned about out of warranty repair costs, buy a good extended warranty or learn how to repair it oneself.

My '05 Jagwagon cost me $10.5K when I bought it in 2011 with 64K miles on it. It probably had around $45K MSRP when it was new.
I drove it for 2 years, put 20K miles on it and traded it in for $8K. A hundred bucks a month is not bad depreciation for a luxury car.
Only repair was a headlight bulb. 50 bucks to repair it because it was behind some stuff.
X-types are AWD... real good in the snow.

Well done and exactly my point. The same reason I am looking to buy a used EV or plug-in over the next few months, they have depreciated like rocks, gas is cheap so everyone is buying larger cars and there are 2-3 yr old ones for <$10k.
