Jaguar S-Type 2.7D Sport 2004

5 star review

I have a late 2004 model 2.7D manual Sport and I would say its the best car I have owned. It’s a fully loaded ex-demonstrator and I agree it beats most cars for comfort ansd is a fantastic effortless touring car. It looks great and quite mean, all black with no chrome apart fron the mesh grille. the rear window are also fitted with privacy glass. I get around 40mps on my trips to The highlands (1500+ miles in a week.)

Bought this car from a dealer 2 weeks ago can not fault the ride or drive plenty of power, but Jaguar says it will do 16.5 urban and well in the twentys on a run, mine does about 12 round town and took the family on a 80 mile round trip today on motorway got average 14.8, not sure what’s wrong?

Jaguar S-Type 2004

5 star review

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.

Jaguar S-Type 2.7 Diesel auto 2004

5 star review

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.

Jaguar S-Type 2.7 litre diesel 2004

4 star review

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.

Jaguar S-Type 2.7 Diesel 2004

5 star review

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.
