2002 Jaguar X-Type Sport review from UK and Ireland
"A fast, compact, refined beauty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None.
General comments?
This is a very smooth and quiet car - passengers tend to start off shouting and then realise that they don't need to.
Thanks to the all-wheel drive, the cornering is superb and stability is excellent.
The SAT NAV is wonderful - Penny (as we call the lady living in the dashboard) has such smooth and restrained tones, you can't help, but love her.
