I'll probably get plenty of abuse for saying this, but am I alone in being slightly under-impressed by the new Jaguar XF in the flesh?
The web was littered with some fantastic looking images prior to it's roll-out, and Jaguar XF leasing is certainly in demand, but having seen a few on the road, it just doesn't excite me like I thought it would.
A maroon coloured XF passed me at a roundabout the other day, and I'm sad to report that it looked a bit like a bloated Toyota Avensis! (Although, maroon? It's no coincidence that the word is an anagram of 'a moron'!)
I'm hoping it's just the usual new model trick at play here; bring it out looking average and then start sticking the good bits on to push sales when the initial buzz gets diluted. Even so, I thought this was the reserve of models like the Vauxhall Corsa - it seems a bit of a cheap trick for the XF.

I agree - the XF is a damp squib in the flesh.
