2002 Jaguar X-Type 3.0 std review from North America
"A high performance bargain."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windshield air vents replaced under warranty.
Drivers seat leather skin replaced under warranty.
General comments?
This car handles really well especially the acceleration.
Seats are comfortable.
Taking a little while to get used to the gear changes through 2nd and 3rd gears.
Great gas mileage for a car so sporty.
I have had no problems with this car and I really enjoy driving it. The car has an appropriate size trunk and enough room for two in the back for a car of this size.
My dealer is superb and ensures that I am well satisfied with the car.
