There are few cars more distinctive than the Jaguar S-Type. It is styled with the elegance and grace of a classic Jaguar and is notable for its famous grille and raked bonnet. The Jaguar S-Type was introduced at a motor show in 1998 as a mid-size luxury executive car though it did not enter the British market until the 2000 model year. There was a previous version of the S-Type introduced in 1963, which ran until the introduction of the Jaguar XJ6 in 1968. Today, with its flowing lines and sleek shape, the Jaguar S-Type is as much about looks as performance though it maintains that classic Jaguar pedigree.

Hello, I have a Jaguar S-Type 2.7 diesel, its very economic, and I have beside that car an Audi A4 3.0 v6 cab and Porsche 996 c4 and the Jaguar is the most comfortable. But now I have some problems with it, the first problem was with the PDF, I got a few times the engine going in "safe mode" specially when I was driving for a while only in town. I went to Jaguar and after that no problems any more. I have also a problem which I really don’t like, when its cold outside like 5 degrees, the car sometimes smokes a lot from the front side and has a bad oil smell. I was panicked when I saw that, I went to jaguar and it’s normal, actually the engine 2.7 (only that one) have a boiler to warm up the water and that boiler works independently from the car engine and works with the fuel of the car, so sometimes it smokes a bit for a few seconds and after its all perfect. I also had a problem with the electrical handbrake, one day I could not release the hand break, it was blocked and with alarms inside. I call Jaguar and they came directly with a truck to fix it. I must say that Jaguar in Luxembourg where I live have a wonderful and serious service. My next will be of course a Jaguar XF with the 3.0D engine. My car has done 60.000 miles.

Just the best car I’ve ever owned in terms of drive, response, take off, brakes and of course in looks. My Jaguar ALWAYS brings a smile to my face as I drive it and you can feel the envy off other motorists and pedestrians too! A super car to own in every respect.

The 2.7 diesel engine is smooth with plenty of torque. I’ve had the S-Type for over 3 years now and have never had so much fun in a car. It’s at its best when cruising along motorways. I chose a Jaguar over its German rival, the BMW 5-Series, for two reasons. 1 - it’s British. 2 - it’s a far better looking car. The standard equipment is very good with a CD player, alloys and climate control. Do not expect great fuel economy from this Jag, you simply will not get it - if you want budget motoring then look elsewhere.

This car is the best I have ever owned. It looks like nothing else on the road and beats the BMW for comfort. This diesel is the most refined I have driven, and the gear changes are silky smooth.
