As the marketing slogan says – quality and refinement come as standard on the Jaguar X-Type. With a range of saloons and estates to choose from, the Jaguar X-Type offers real choice meaning you can find the vehicle that suits you as an individual.The Jaguar X-Type is in fact one of the smallest in Jaguar’s saloon series and takes much of its styling from the XJ. It is actually built on the same platform that is used as the base for the Ford Mondeo and is seen as a collaboration between the two companies – 10% of the parts are made by Jaguar, 20% by Ford. The Jaguar X-Type was first introduced in 2001 and is one of Jaguar’s best sellers.

The X Type has made driving a pleasure once more. It is comfortable, reliable and refined - the ride quality is the best I have ever encountered. Handling is responsive and the fuel economy is excellent for a car of its type. This is one of the least expensive executive cars and this should be taken into account when comparing it against much more expensive models. The car is unquestionably beautiful but the road noise is excessive and this stops me from awarding it 5 stars.

This is a very affordable car, not only to buy but to run. It’s a wonderful car to drive, perfectly balanced and gives a perfectly smooth ride, as you would expect. Well equipped and a very comfortable interior that seats 5 adults no problem. Good safety features mean it’s a good choice as a family car too. Lovely car.

Having owned this particular vehicle now for nearly two years I thought it was about time that I dropped my comments in on the sea of reviews that sail across the internet, some with sails, most without. When I first purchased the delightful 2.0 litre S.E model, a platinum coloured car from a local dealer I was silently assured in my outer ego that luxurious driving is all about the history book's and racing breeds of yesterday that is Jaguar, (or should that be was, Jaguar?)
I was impressed with the engine, I mean who wouldn't be ... 2 litres of gentle cattish purring ... smooth and comfort in every aspect of the cars coat and internal plushness ... oh and not forgetting the array of buttons and gadgets that surround you in the not quite "top of the range" version of the X-Type saloon. The first drive was impressive, the next twelve months or so was my Jaguar honeymoon period where you see it ... you want it ... and basically you have it, (this reminds most guys of early dating games and the girls who used to oblige!). And finally, the past nine months where the old style classic shapes and internal leather belongings seem to be a little tiring in the now updated and refined competitive marques that simply offer a longer lasting vision of what cars should be when they pass you on motorways and in back lanes without seemingly even trying too hard.
It has been a steady jog owning a Jaguar x-type, and now I think I am ready for a few sprints and long distance races, guess what ... think i will go and test drive the new 3 series, oh and should really check out the Z4, but just when your mind wants to jump in and lock horns with a competitor ... they go and release the Jaguar XF! It’s bloody hard deciding when you have pond of vehicles all swimming to reach your financial shores, and the resting place of an assured and certain mind. I think every honest driver should take a look at the Jaguar X-type range, but reckon most of them would do this for heritage rather than personal privilege ... It's been fine owning the car, driving the car, servicing the car, washing the car, but just not what i thought it was going to be. X-Type or your type...you decide.

The Jag X-type is the best car I have ever owned. A cheap Jag that is practical yet still has all the prestige of a Jag. Better by far than any of it’s near rivals.
