Jaguar X Type 04

I own this vehicle and bought it with 168k miles. Maintenance is often sometimes, and can be expensive but if you can get past that the car performs well and handles well too. Would recommend as a cheaper/reliable car.

Solid Mehanicals- very dependable, gorgeous stylin

The X type is a solid, dependable sure footed car, but with a lot of finesse and class for this price range. I must declare a bias , I used to be an engineer for Jaguar cars in the UK and was involved in the powertrain development (Its not a Ford engine). At the time, I wasn't so keen, And I was a BMW guy, but now, over many years I realise for the used price the car is incredible! The alternatives this price range for winter cars, are old Buicks or Ford, and the level of engineering doesn't compare. I love the suspension ride compromise chosen- sporty but great for the terrible mid west roads, I like the steering feel for a daily car. The manual gear change could be nicer and firmer. Some of the interior choices of materials are a bit down market but way better than anything American. Nice dependable car, feels solid. wish the brakes were better. Watch for rust on the rockers

A really fun ride for an old-schooler like me.

It really feels like a rear wheel drive (I hate the feel of FWD). The rear end plants firmly in a curve, but on acceleration through the curve, there is no wash out of the front (understeer). It almost feels like it's rotating through the turn. I was looking for an 02, 03, or 04 because they have the viscus coupling that proportions torque, front to rear. It is said to drive like a RWD and it does. I wasn't disappointed by the performance of the 3.0 V6 and gear ratios are excellently matched. The interior won't accommodate a very tall person but very comfortable for average stature. Ride is somewhat firm and a bit noisy which is, I'm sure, a trade off for handling. I paid the high end of the price range because of EXTREMELY low certified mileage and excellent condition and am happy that I did. I've only had it for a few months so reliability is yet to be determined. I am optimistic because of the Ford Mondeo platform on which the X Type is based. Contrary to popular belief, I find that to be a plus for the X Type.

Luxury at its best

The car runs very well. Will get you from A to Z, this is not a clunker, plenty of life left to live. Just a few minor cosmetic issue's i.e. inside roof needs a lil work, headlights&maybe wheel alignment. Other than that once those minor details are dealt with your driving a reconstructed classic automobile. Drive in style in your brand new X-type.
