We got a Tip!
Although the numbers polled are small for a meaningful sample, the Jaguar XF doesn’t cover itself in glory in the reliability stakes reported by TrueDelta. Michael Karesh wrote to tell me of his site after responding to the recent Jaguar XF Roadster post.
In case you’re interested in bad news as well as good, the Jaguar XF has had a high repair rate in TrueDelta’s Vehicle Reliability Survey. The sample size isn’t large, at 26 cars, but the stat of 159 successful repair trips per 100 cars per year is nearly three times the average. We’ll update the result again in February. Current set here: http://www.truedelta.com/latest_results.php Please let me know if you have any questions.
