Jaguar XF wins ‘Car of the Year’ at Auto Express New Car Honours 2008
The Jaguar XF has once again been voted ‘Car of the Year’, securing a fourth top title win since being launched in March.
This time the premier award comes from Auto Express in their New Car Honours 2008.
Dan Strong, Editor of Auto Express magazine, said: “Jaguar’s XF is a machine that has proved the doubters wrong. It’s a car that impresses on every level, from design to drivability, practicality to price.
“It’s a home-grown package, designed and developed in the UK and built by a highly-skilled workforce.”

Car parking is not “undercharged” nor is it “subsidised”. Town centre businesses are overtaxed by local authorities rates and would close or move out of town if their customers were driven away by parking charges. This would dramatically reduce the local authorities income from these lost businesses.
This government is totally out of it’s mind - car parks are expensive to park in especially town centre ones. If you use your car for business purposes you have to be near to your work place, because time means money. We all haven’t the luxury of walking / cycling.
I like that Peugeot plenty!
They need a new design direction, as the current “wide mouth frog” look is about as appealing dining on nasal excavations. I also hope that they get their ride/handling mojo back, as the 207GTi I test drove late last year had it’s steering anaesthatised and it’s shocks filled with custard. Nasty thing it was, which is why I went for an Alfa 147 Sport Q2.
