This is my first Jaguar. Was a bit concerned about reliability, but really loved the look and feel of this car. I decided to buy it, as it has a good warranty. Just got back on a 1800 mile road trip from Oregon to Montana. Got 26 MPG! Great road car. Fun to drive. Have almost 9000 total miles on the car, with NO problems or issues. The all wheel drive is great. The car is quiet and handles very well. Build quality is great. The dealership made buying a Jag the best experience I have ever had.

This car is fun to drive, holds the pavement well. Acceleration is sufficient. Fit, finish and feel are better than expected.

Before I bought this car, I had heard some negative things about Jaguar quality. After test driving the car, I fell in love with it. I opted for the 3 L upgraded engine which has something like 250hp, and is very quick in this size car. The handling is super, braking great and stylish inside. This car is very nice for the price! Negatives are the seat belt buckles which are plastic.. This car has had no problems at all ad seems a perfect mix of styling, perfomance and price. Another good thing is it is owned by Ford and made in Britian(I dont want to buy anything from the Germans since their lack of support for the USA)

X-type Owner

It a good looking car with class.The only problem I have had is the paint job. It seems to chip right down to the primer with the littliest bump. I am having this looked into too, as it is obvious a bad paint job, otherwise the car itself is well built and gives the driver the feeling of being in control. I am a previous owner of two Lexuses and have decided to make a change, I am looking for good customer service as well as dependability in a vehicle. I find that to be most important overall.
