Jaguar was founded in 1922 when it was initially called the Swallow Sidecar Company; since then, it has become a quintessentially British car brand. There are lots of quirky facts about Jaguar that most people don't know. For example, before its vehicles are painted, they are brushed with ionised emu feathers to prevent the metal from attracting dust. Jaguar has also won the world's oldest endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, seven times, making it the fourth most successful manufacturer.
The XF is a stylish alternative to the BMW 5 Series, and according to some reviewers, it offers a superior driving experience. When it was released in 2007, it marked a change in direction for Jaguar; gone was the retro styling of previous cars, replaced by a sleek, modern design with top speeds between 120 and 155 mph.
The XF has also received numerous awards. In 2012, it was named 'Car of the Decade' by the Southern Group of Motoring Writers, and Auto Trader crowned it 'New Car of the Year' in 2017. However, reliability isn't the XF's greatest strength. Keep an eye out for electrical issues, loose door trim and a stuck fuel filler cap.
The clutch and gearbox work together in a manual transmission to facilitate gear changes, determining the amount of power available from the engine. Unfortunately, several things can go wrong within this system, requiring an urgent repair.
Most clutches last at least 60,000 miles, though several factors, including your driving style, can impact this distance. Gearboxes typically last between 100,000 and 150,000 miles - find out how much a repair is likely to cost here.
Common signs of clutch and gearbox failure include:
- A limp, hard-to-press or sticking clutch pedal
- Grinding or clunking noises when you change gears
- Difficulty moving the gear stick
- Clutch slipping (when your car struggles to stay in gear)
