2005 jaguar S-Type reviews

jaguar S-Type reviews by year of make: 1999  2000  2002  2003  2004  2005  2006  2007  Read all reviews

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.

5 star review

4 years of superb driving experience from new with this beautiful car, which still turns peoples heads to admire its classic lines. I am still a confirmed addict of the marque. For the joy of it I have just completed a 2,000 mile round trip in 5 days from the Exeter in the West Country via Wales and the Lake District, then around the west and north coast of Scotland to John ’O Groats and back down the East coast & via Yorkshire to Exeter - with an average fuel consumption of over 38 mpg. I am amazed at the tireless "Grand Touring " capability of the car.

Hi, like so many others the only thing I can fault is the smoke on cold days... IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS ON FIRE... And the looks I get from everybody who sees it are astonishing. It also has the habit of filling the cabin with a smoky smell. The dealer says this is normal but it is quite embarrassing!

Jaguar S-Type 2005

3 star review

I thought the jaguar "S" was really good until I had problems with the gear box. Jaguar said they had heard of such problems when the car was changing down but an additive added would cure it. This I refused as the car was still under warranty and they wanted £150 to do the work. Eventually the car was fitted with a NEW GEAR BOX, which makes me wonder how long the additive would have lasted, the car had only done 27,000 miles. Has any one else had this problem? I still must thank my local Jaguar dealer for contacting Jaguar and having the fault correctly put right at no cost to me.
