All that's left is to wait a few years and kek at the recalls and depreciation :^)
>>15071769
The new Jaguar XE, speaking about reliability, has some very serious issues...also the assistance is the worst shit I've ever seen.
...but it's selling.

English reviewers are saying the Giulia is better than the XE: checked.
German reviewers are saying the car is better to drive than their cars and the interior quality is between 3 Series (the worst) and Audi A4 (the best), according to: http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/fahrberichte/fahrbericht-alfa-romeo-giulia-22-jtdm-16v-11250833.html

The 2.2 diesel weights 1347 kg with manual and 1410 with the ZF, making the Giulia the best in Class.

It doesn't say that anywhere in the link you posted

Mostly electronic problems for active braking and other safety systems.
Jaguar can't solve the situation and when you write, even from the desk of your legal, they'll answer that "the car is ok"...that's not true.
Also there's an user on a forum I read that claims that there's a dangerous fuel leakage and that Jaguar, since this incident, is recalling several XE in Europe.
We're waiting for him to write about this, he also said that he's going to write also at italian car magazines about the issue.
In pic related you can see the damages occourred to a XE after being repaired (if you zoom you can see a bad ass paint job for covering): the customer wrote about this @ Jaguar UK and they haven't even answered.
I'm reading scary things about the Jaguar assistance...if you're interested in the car I'd suggest to read every Jaguar related forum for gaining infos.

It's in Italian.
>>15071761
They’re trying to sound positive, but they’re also telling us that it has lousy steering feel, lower interior quality than the competition, an ugly nav system, and they’ve only compared its handling to other Fiat/Chrysler models.
>>15072095
Yes, we're shitty at cars. Our carmakers just build boring FWD transportation-pods thanks to our communist gvernment.
They don't have the balls to try something new.
This Alfa is awesome !
>>15071761
complete shitbox i bet
>>15077376
You know that english and german reviewers are always salty about Italian products?
If they're admitting that this time the new Alfa Romeo is a true premium product, well, you can bet your fat ass that at least they're understimating the car.
I saw the car at Geneva motorshow and then recently at my Alfa Romeo dealer, also I drove the car at Balocco.
The car is very nice, the ride is sharp and well balanced, the infotainment is the very same Magneti Marelli Bmw uses (the rotary dial with touchpad also is the same) and literally nobody has complained about the system...crazy isn't it?
The interior is not as refined as an Audi or Lexus one but everything inside is 10 times better designed compared to a German car.
Not a single fuckin tablet, every button is well located, also the gear paddles behind the steering wheel are made entirely of aluminium and are big...the competitors have small plastic pieces. The feeling is not even comparable.
>>15077552
*literally nobody has ever complained about the BMW system...everybody praised that system, an ITALIAN system mounted on a Bmw.
The meme force is strong.
>>15071761
Speaking of Alfa's... I wonder what's the turning circle gonna be...
>be me
>have distinctive pleasure of trying to park a car in an very tight underground garage
>Parking space is next to two SUV's, one of them Toyota RAV3.
>In the end give up, after almost scratching my car.
>look up online alfa 147 turning circle
>11.3m
>MFW my parents Volvo V50 has turning circle of 10,6m
>>15077765
But when you're driving the V50 your dick is not hard as it is in the 147 anon. Think about it.

>>15076485
Well that sucks. I'm gonna wait and see what the owner opinions and expected reliability turn out to be.
>the damages
Meh, just because it's a luxury dealer doesn't mean they won't mess up. I've been to some very professional and friendly Lexus and BMW dealers, and even they mess up from time to time. What matters more is how they remedy the situation.

>Der Innenraum lädt klar gegliedert und mit angenehmen Materialien ein; das Qualitätsniveau liegt etwa zwischen 3er BMW und Audi A4.
Translated:
>The interior is clearly structured and with comfortable materials; the quality level is between about BMW 3 Series and Audi A4.
>>15077923
The new A4 interior definitely has the best build quality and materials. IMO, here's the rankings of the class from best to worst in terms of materials, build quality, and overall layout.
>2017 A4/S4
>C-class
>IS
>XE
>ATS
>3 series
All of these are for the current models with the exception of the 2017 A4/S4.
>>15078051
The first user sold the car (losing money) and switched to - sigh - Audi with an A5 sportback.
The last user, the one with fuel leakings, said that once he's done with legals and Jaguar he's selling the car.
About the dealers, you're right but if I write to Jaguar itself speaking about the third world assistance and damages I got on my brand new premium XE...well, they have to deal with an image damage if they're not doing nothing to fix this issue...and that's the case.
Bad assistance and Jaguar completely ignoring customers.
>>15078086
I agree but I'd put the IS at first place with the A4.
The C class has a worse interior than the previous generation and so does the 3 series.
>>15078093
*fuel leaks
