2000 Jaguar S-Type review from North America

Apart from the repairs being super expensive, I did not especially appreciate the fact that you had to go to Jaguar to buy tail light bulbs for the S-Type. I got charged 20 times what a bulb is worth.

The overflow had to be replaced and the radiator hose (upper) had to be replaced also. The man hours involved in changing the overflow bottle was crazy, it would have been cheaper to buy another car. The radiator hose when I had it replaced, I found out, they changed the size (diameter) of the smaller hoses that connect to this hose, so needless to say, I had to buy all the other smaller hoses. 800.00 dollars later, the car was running again. Ridiculous service fees.

Brakes and transmission work is way over priced and surprisingly, not a quality job or a quality part.

This car is a beautiful looker, the body lines and style of this vehicle screams luxury and style, unfortunately the repairs will hit you hard in the pocket book. No matter who you are or your income level, you will soon realize that the costs involved to repair this car will make a light go off in your head, making you realize why buying a low priced Jaguar used is just not worth it.
