    #2 surprised me, but you have a very good point. This car has been remarkably reliable by LT fleet standards. Well done Jag.

    Curious as to how well it would hold up on an extended long term test. I can only imagine the cost to repair all those vents and the gear selector

    LEFT-FOOT BRAKING?!?!?

    SHEPSKI- - - I've been left-foot braking for 45 years. It works for me, no problems & I never ride the pedal.

    "...so impossible to not exploit. " Yes, you're not exactly known for throttle restraint at IL. Reason #7 is one reason I did not buy an XF. What you call theatre I call chintz that will break. My dealer has repaired quite a few of the Warp Adjusters, and non-deploying A/C vents does not work for me in Las Vegas. I would select them "Open" from the menus and they would stay that way.

    This is a far more interesting car than the Audi/BMW, but 22K miles is barely halfway through a lease period and in no way signifies a reliable car. Reason #1 made me cringe. Overused!!
