2002 Jaguar X-Type 3.0 Sport review from North America
"It's a love affair!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Having truck latch replaced. Otherwise, has been the epitome of a dependable, trustworthy vehicle.
General comments?
Beautiful, sexy, fast, unmistakably Jaguar. This is the 3rd Jaguar I've owned, undeniably the best. Back seats small, dash switches plastic... but hey, who cares? It's a dependable Jaguar with tons of style and panache.
HINT: Get a reputable CERTIFIED Jaguar mechanic to assist you with general maintenance. The car is basically bullet proof, but someone with proper knowledge and experience can save you from very costly repairs.
