I got this car, did my homework on it and it was well worth the purchase. I had to put some bucks in it because I purchased used private, but overall the car is awesome - I love it. Fun to drive and having Caddy's and BMW's and Benz, I really think this car holds up to them and I feel better driving it because the look is nice, the style stands out.
A great second car!

I have to disclaimer this. I am a long time Jaguar owner/collector, biased to the marque. We bought this car from a local dealer we know because we temporarily needed another car in the household. I bought it with 115,000 miles on it and put almost another 10,000 on it over 2+ years of ownership. I bought this car because it was a one owner, well maintained car. My advice on buying an older Jag sedan is that if you don't know the service history, assume it's going to need major service, which can be expensive. Even so, they will require a degree of maintenence as components reach the end of their serviceable life. During my ownership I replaced the driver sear module, replaced brakes and the ignition switch. I bought a Sport model with the 3.0 six, a nice engine with great torque and moves this car down the road well. When I first drove the S-Type in 2000, I thought it was the best handling sedan I had driven. The Sport model with better suspension and seats didn't disappoint. A lovely car to drive. Four of us traveled comfortably on a 1,000 mile road trip. These cars are now over a decade and a half old. Great value for money if you get the right one, choose wisely!

I love owning my Jaguar. Not only is it stylish to drive but it's also safe and comfortable to be in. Also, most drivers on the road are careful driving behind me and next to me because they would hate to pay for any damages incurred so that's a plus also.
Not The 80's Jag Nightmare

I just bought this car pre-owned for my fiance and despite my objections being a previous Jag owner (1995 XJ8) that was junk, the S-type seems to be a much needed improvement. Nicely laid out inside & out, runs well, but compared to my BMW 528i, the gas mileage on the Jag for a V6 is horrible. Handles well for such a heavy car and picks up nice on the highway. Currently has 85000 miles and looks brand new inside and out! Compliments have been incredible and common. Certainly a car for somebody looking for something different. I'm hoping the Ford influence pays off on this higher mileage Jag. Looks like we paid 3 times more then what we did, the neighbors are very jealous!
What a car

I've had this car for about 6 weeks and if your looking for something different, then this is the car. I've been driving a Toyota Avalon and was looking to upgrade. But although the styles of the various cars were different from the outside, once I sat in them, it was just another Avalon - and the Avalon was a great car. This really moves down the highway and you need to be careful because at 80, you feel as if your no moving as the ride is so smooth. It's great on turns as if it was hugging the road and although I didn't rate the gas mileage very high, I've been getting around 21 to 22 miles per gallon. It's a great car if you want to be noticed.
