We were looking for an affordable sporty sedan a la Infiniti G35, Audi A4, Cadillac CTS etc. and were actually not planning to test drive the Jaguar given the mixed reviews regarding the early 2002 models. However, my wife pushed for a test ride; we were surpised to find ourselves hooked. The car handles very well. The 2.5 is plenty sufficient to keep things interesting. While maybe not as fast as the G35, the car is lots of fun to drive and has character. With the free service and our deal price of $28,000 for a base model/manual, the value is high. 1k on the car to date.

Buying the jag was the easiest buying experience ever for a car: no stress, no sales pushes, no trouble. Dealer bent backward for me. Others claim the 2.5 doesnt have enough power - it has plenty of power for most people. I love seeing the jaguar statue riding atop the hood in front. Fittings and finish are clean and flush. Gives an appearance of a more expensive jaguar. Although this is a 2003 it has a bunch of stuff not shown on 2003's. Even have cup holders front and rear. Drive is smooth and the seats so comfortable it could be an easy chair. Acceleration is smooth.

We picked up the x-type from the dealer about a month ago and currently have 2000 miles on it. My wife has never enjoyed driving so much, the car is just plain fun! Everything works the way it is supposed to, nothing to complain about. We live in a rural hilly area and the 2.5 with automatic has plenty of power to handle it. Can't wait for the winter to see how the AWD does. With the factory and dealer discounts on this car it feels like an incredible bargain.

I took the Jag on a windy mountain road for the first time, wow. The AWD was a definate improvement, as there seemed to be no limits to the amount of accel. in the curves. Truely thrilling. Even with the 2.5 L engine, there seemed no lack of power. I test drove the 3.0, and although there was a noticeable increase in HP, it was not appreciable. I commute 120+ miles/day, so I went for the mileage, rather than the power, and I don't regret it.
