The Executive and Luxury category in the 2011 What Car? Used Car of the Year Awards has been won by the Jaguar XF, with judges calling it a 'seriously desirable and sophisticated car'.
Chas Hallett, What Car?'s editor-in-chief, said: "The Jaguar XF's combination of sharp, contemporary styling, build quality, refinement, sporting agility and equipment is a winning formula, especially in the secondhand market where a highly specified model can now be bought for less than £20,000."
The judging panel was were from all areas of the motor industry including experts from What Car?. The judges picked the winners based on running costs, reliability, driveability, quality, longevity, safety features and desirability.
Andy Whyman, XF Chief Programme Engineer commented: "We worked tirelessly on the development of the XF for its introduction in 2008. Since then, over 38,000 have been sold in the UK and the momentum continues. To be recognised by What Car? means a great deal to the whole XF team and we're delighted to add another award to our ever-growing tally."
The next generation Jaguar XF has been on sale since 1st September 2011 and is available with a new 2.2 litre Diesel engine with Stop-Start technology. Sales have risen 12.8 per cent compared to September 2010.
