John, I think the survival rate is better now as most earlier Jags are an appreciating asset, causing owners to look after them better. As far as complexity, I don't think they are any more complex than most cars. Just my opinion though. I'd rather work on, say, an older XJ/XK than the modern motor with all it's electrickery. Jags do have a certain kudos, and up to 2009 were instantly recognisable. Now, not so much, or so Mrs. JJ says! The XF for example, can look very similar to a Tesla - not to our enthusiast eyes though!! I admit the latest XJ is a pretty striking car.
