Used 1993 Jaguar XJ-Series Sedan Consumer Reviews
Its a Jaguar; that says it all.
I've restored a classic 50's car, owned a couple of 60's muscle cars, owned a couple later model performance cars, plus several Japanese cars, but this Jaguar was the most fun to own and drive and it by far attracted the most attention. The repair costs are slightly higher because I always used Jaguar authorized technicians, but it was well worth it. It is a little expensive to insure if you have teenagers on your policy. Unbelieveable mid-range torque and acceleration. This used to be my everyday car, but I bought an SUV and this is now my "pleasure vehicle" as the insurance company calls it, and that actually is a good adjective for this car.
Powerful, comfortable, reliable
I bought this for my wife and we are both very pleased. The Jaguar has an excellent ride, more than enough power, and is made almost entirely of steel. We have an '87 SeriesIII Jaguar and that is why we stayed with the line. Parts are easily obtained off the web or otherwise. In my opinion, an excellent value for the very low prices available as used cars.

A great nightmare
I have owned this car for 2 and a half years, in the winter it has bad acceleration and the accelerator would stick, but it handled very well on ice and snow covered roads. In the summer its a blast, the acceleration is smooth and fast, and having the windows down is enjoyable. But there's many problems, got it at 86,000 and now it has 106,000 miles. Replaced fuel pump twice, has had many times the car wouldnt start due to the battery or random reasons that fixed themselves. Also. the rear end is going on me just a bad experience
Proven Over the Years
I was skeptical when I purchased this car as a Select Edition, but it has been reliable, fun, and absolutely beautiful to this day.
