Road test verdicts don’t come any tighter than this, and neither of these cars will leave you feeling short-changed. The Jaguar is the emotional choice, as its beautiful looks and unique cabin provide a feelgood factor that’s missing from the BMW. But a quick drive in the 535d throws a different light on matters.
