The Bang for your Buck!

On sport mode (standard to all X-type models) it is amazingly fun to drive. Surprisingly it had an interior that put my friends, family, and clients ahh. The luxury package is the way to go. The chrome exterior is flashy and still maintains its profesional look. Lot of power and prestige.

A cat with bigger claws

Just replaced my 03 X Type 2.5 with an 06 3 Liter X. The new cat has far better acceleration and handling. As part of the sunroof package, you get 17 inch wheels and wider tires. I also noticed that Jag has made a number of subtle improvements since 03 - brakes are better with no dust problem; the center consol is higher quality; a second cupholder has been added; the seats have been improved. Another plus is the availability of Jags extended warranty for a reasonable price. I opted for the 7 year -100K because this car's a keeper.

We are very pleased with our X-type. We bought it for the styling, the all wheel drive and the over all "size" of the vehicle. We have not been disappointed.

This is my first "luxury" car, and can tell you I am very impressed. My family was always the "Volvo" family so that was comparison standard. Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase and can tell you I will continue to upgrade as my lease expires.

Not for everyone

Handles well and is very stylish. Received a lot of compliments from consumers on tha appearance of the car overall. Do not like the 17" low profile tires. Prone to flats if running over obstacles in road. Jag's overall ride is hard and you feel and hear every crack and bump in the road. This may be due to the low profile tires but maybe it's the car suspension. Gas mileage leaves a lot to be desired. Open road I haven't gotten over 25 mph.
