Used 2000 Jaguar S-Type Sedan Consumer Reviews
Don't do it
I have never had more problems with any vehicle I have owned. The car is in the shop more than it is at my garage. No doubt the best loooking car on the road...but it is seldom on the road. Did not find dealership helful. I have purchased my last Jag. Give me my Mercedes back!
Aging Badly
We have absolutely loved this car, and up until now, marveled at how much Ford's ownership had improved the reliability of the marque (vis a vis Jaguar's reputation in the 1980s). At five years of age, window channels and other relatively minor things broke that would never have failed in some other automobiles. Most recently, with less than 40,000 miles on the odometer, we got to pay $2,400+ for a transmission rebuild. It was explained that there is a "braking mechanism" in the transmission that helped slow the car when the foot was lifted aff of the accelerator. Ford has improved Jaguar's reputation from their former deplorable reputation up to Ford's mediocre at best reliability.
2000 Jaguar S-Type
Smooth body style with smooth driving control and chrome Jaguar rims to add to the great looks.
My experience with my 2000 S type Jaguar
This has been an exciting and fun car to drive. Gets lots of looks and compliments from the young to the old. Everyone love the car and how it looks. No problems with the car after one year of ownership. Easy to keep clean--best paint job I have ever seen on a car.
My first Jag
I bought this car used and also took out an extended warranty after hearing some scary stories about Jags. But after fixing some initial problems, I have had nothing but great fun and reliability from this car! Everyone loves the way it looks of course. And I drive a lot so the comfort of the ride is something that I really appreciate. I have had an MG in the past so I was used to "babying" a car and expected to have to baby the Jag, but it has been babying ME!!
