Used Jaguar cars for sale near Richmond, IL

Buying a car is never easy, especially not three states over, and there is a CoViD-19 virus creating barriers at every possible moment. But the car I fell in love with was at Imperial Motors in Lake Bluff IL, one of three made in that specific color combination for the year. I tried to negotiate my way to a deal, but Steve was a straight shooter and fair to Kelley Blue Book, so we struck a deal. I later found out that they underpriced the car I bought, so I made out like a bandit on the sale anyway. Nevertheless, sometimes, when workers are not operating their computers and phone lines as usual, buying a car across state lines is not as easy as one would hope. Luckily, Steve was with me every bit of the way, for instance, where the registration process typically would fall into place, CoViD-19 stopped regular operations, and my registration would be delayed by months if it wasn't for Steve's help. Steve also got me window tinting at cost before shipping the car as a part of his customer service experience. Subsequently, he made sure I received prompt and discounted shipping of both the trade-in car and the purchased car with a driver's contact phone number. I received the title and a check to pay the taxes due on the vehicle at the DMV since Steve advised this to be the fastest route to register the car. At the DMV, I found that Imperial Motors overcharged sales tax for the vehicle. When I notified Steve of the mishap, and that the DMV is sending the dealership the overage check instead of me, Steve promptly sent a check of the overage to me via UPS. Buying a car online from a dealership out of state made me weary, but Steve is a person I could count on by being there for me, on his official and personal time. That is how a Jaguar dealership takes care of a customer by becoming a part of their experience, and I feel like Steve, and I are good friends, although we never met.

Great dealership would definitely recommend it to others staff is very knowledgeable and prices are reasonable

I purchased this car about 6 years ago (5.0 n/a XK). From a design perspective, it still holds up and looks modern. I actually like the looks of the base models as they don't have all of the side skirts and aero that change the lines of the original design a bit. The front was slightly redesigned in 2012 and looks a little more aggressive. Performance is great, end the sound of the engine when you get on the gas is addictive. Heated/Cooled seats with 16 way adjustments are great. Back seat is good for some soft luggage. I don't put a lot of miles on the car, but besides yearly oil changes my main cost has been tires. The 20" wheels & tires on this car look great... but stay away from potholes if you can. If you can get the car with 19" wheels... do it... they have some more sidewall. I've replaced both front tires due to pothole hits splitting the sidewalls. If you can't get the 19s, get a road hazard plan when you buy tires. The only other complaint is the touch screen. It is very outdated and slow... only saving grace is that it supports usb mp3 playback (no bluetooth music... only calls). There is not a ton of aftermarket add ons for these cars (exhaust and wheels) and if you get into an accident in an old one, don't be surprised if your car gets totaled out for even seemingly minor damage due to the cost of aluminum body repair. I love this car for roadtrips with the wife, and weekend drives... but I have a Subaru for driving the kids and bad weather.

Great experience. Alex was a charm to work with for the truck I been wanting.

The F-Pace is an excellent sporty SUV. 2.5L engine has been completely trouble free. The suspension on this generation is a bit firmer than the newer generation. The performance and fuel economy is great. The infotainment system allows for apple car play (corded). The F Pace is bigger than other compact SUVs in its class. I wish Jag wasn’t so committed to going all electric because they have taken the Land Rover Velar and made the F-Pace more sporty and luxurious.

Excellent experience from start to finish! The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend this dealership for anyone looking for quality service and great deals.

I have two Jaguars. The first a 2001 XK8, I bought in 2015 from the original owner. The 2nd, a 2007 XK, I bought after the original owner traded it in to a dealer in Oregon. I had it shipped to me in Alabama. Both are a similar Pacific Blue, the 07 being Indigo Blue, slightly darker. The 01 has Ivory interior, the 07 has beige. The 01 has quite a bit of recurring maintenance from a host of items that needed redesigning, which was accomplished on the 07. Everything needed was done. The big differences between the two cars is trunk space and cabin space. The 07 Cabin accommodates a taller person where the trunk on the 01 would hold a VW Beetle and easily close. I redesigned the 01 upper shock mounts and rebuilt the mounts with new polyurethane bushings that should outlast me. I have replaced them with OEM 3 times since 2015. That chirping sound you hear is the shock mounts, metal to metal chirping. Anyway, the 01 XK8 is a nice automobile that needs near constant attention. The 07 XK is a Super Luxury GT sports car that is easy to maintain and so far, bulletproof. Nothing that I have driven in it's class compares equally. Everything else has a harsher ride and are regular sports cars. I have owned Corvettes, BMW's, Acura's, Mercedes and Porsche's. None compare. So far, I've had people compliment me on my Miata (the 01) and Corvette (both the 01 & the 07)... Jaguar is a brand of only a few in my location... very rare and no one knows what it is... up close, they just can't read, I guess. The guy was staring at the Jaguar emblem when he called it the best looking Miata he had ever seen. LOL!

The sales representative was very helpful to finding a car with the specifications that suited our family’s needs. We found exactly what we were looking for. Sam, was great with his advice. Again Thanks.

If you are after comfort and looks, this is the car for you, but, and here's the big but, be prepared to spend more than normal for maintenance. It is a Jaguar, and that is a small company, and there are not that many dealers to take the car to, and when you do, bring a full wallet or a very good credit card. Not a sports car. This is a grand touring car, and not something for the race track. It is pretty quick for what it is, and it does handle well.

I came from out of state with a trade in. Steve Link handled the sale of a new XJ. Thrilled with the car. Buying process was straight forward, no pressure. A totally positive experience. Best car buying experience I’ve ever had.

Mike and Bradley were the best to work with. I appreciate their attention, quick responses, and over all respect.
