So would the F-Pace be your SUV leasing option?
Historically, Jaguar have been seen as a car for the older driver (think driving gloves and tweed). However, with the renovated range of XE, XF and F-Pace, Jaguar are targeting the younger-driver market as well.
We do think it is a diverse car manufacturer and definitely do not deserve the “old-fashioned” label. So would you choose it over a BMW, Mercedes or Audi?
