Cool WhatCar: G30 5-Series vs X260 Jaguar XF

Hey,

Just thought i'd post WhatCar's comparison between the G30 5er and the Jaguar XF which was last updated in 2015. Considering the 5 Series won their overall car of the year and their luxury car of the year awards, the winner shouldn't come as much of a surprise. In this test they compared the 530d xDrive M Sport and the Jaguar XF 3.0 V6 Diesel S.



Check out the written comparison here!

Quote:
5 Series
For: Impeccably quiet cruiser; brilliant to drive on optional VDC suspension
Against: Thirstier and much pricier than the entry-level 520d
Verdict: An utterly brilliant luxury saloon – if you can afford it
Rating: 5/5

Jaguar XF
For: Agile, enjoyable handling; strong engine; bigger dealer discounts
Against: Disappointing interior; noisier; fiddly infotainment system
Verdict: Well worth a look if you want something sportier to drive
Rating: 4/5

Winner: 5 Series
Seems like WhatCar like the new 5 Series very much, it's won their luxury car of the year, overall car of the year and also outclassed the Mercedes E-Class and now the XF.

The interior of the Jag is so so bad that it's a deal breaker. I was astounded such a poor quality interior made it to production. The material and build quality of it wouldn't even be tolerated in a Honda Civic.

There's no question the 5er is a better car, even if the Jag is a little sleeker.
