Overview & Reviews
The S-Type gets minor styling revisions in the form of smaller taillights, a tighter-looking deck lid and a restyled front fascia. New exterior panels have tighter fits, while the hood is now made of aluminum. Interior upgrades include new Bronze Madrona trim, a revised instrument panel and an optional aluminum trim package. Eight-cylinder models get a new VDP package that adds premium heated leather seats, burled walnut trim and unique 17-inch alloy wheels.
- Elegantly appointed interiors, solid all-around performance, classic British styling, full load of standard safety equipment.
- A few cheap interior bits, high price, fussy J-gate shifter.

Fun car - 2005 Jaguar S-Type
By TomH - February 19 - 10:53 amThis car is a joy to drive especally with the adaptive cruise control andnavigation. It makes taking a trip easy. The car is not perfect and could be improved quite a bit with just a few changes like better drink holders and adding heated steering wheel like moms XJ8L. Still the car is well equipped. The car handles very well and most times I prefer to take it over the wifes Boxster . While the Boxster is a true sports car the S is very close to as good handling and has better acceleration plus more room. One caution with the standard tires forget even going to get winter tires if the roads have any ice or snow.
