This Year's Model Updates:

Jaguar beefs up its presence in the luxury category with the X-Type, a brand-new model that brings the company's range to four. The X-Type is a fresh breed of cat for the manufacturer: it's Jaguar's first-ever all-wheel-drive vehicle, and it's priced to tap the entry-luxury segment.

Pros:
  • Reasonable pricing, sporty handling, currently the only Jaguar available with a manual tranny.
Cons:
  • Spartan interior design, some less-than-prestigious Ford-themed switchgear and exterior styling cues, price goes up with options faster than you can say "Ford Mondeo."

  • This Jag is Sassy - 2002 Jaguar X-Type

    I love this entry level Jaguar. It goes!! I cant believe that there are bad reviews about this vehicle. I would like to read them . I will say that very large people would fine it small for them inside. I like the sporty fit.

  • Fun to Drive - 2002 Jaguar X-Type

    This car is a lot more fun to drive than I expected. The 3.0L five speed really takes off. Comfort is great, sound is even better. Top notch audio system.

  • My 2002 X-Type - 2002 Jaguar X-Type

    Had several frustrating "I hate this car!" growing pains initially, as it was the first model year. But after the first year and getting all the issues taken care of, no problems. Fantastic, solid, beautiful car...great value. And after 3 years it still catches peoples eye. I get several comments on it.

  • I love this Cat and I am a dog man - 2002 Jaguar X-Type
    By -

    This car is simply excellent. It looks great, drives like a dream and is comfortable as well. The all wheel drive and optional sports shift (push a button) let you play formula 1 or old foggie driving. As the Army would say, be all you can be and drive this cat.

  • Great Little Car - 2002 Jaguar X-Type
    By -

    Now a two Jaguar Family. We shopped around Audi A4Quattro, BMW 325XI, and X- type. The Jag dealer was the most friendly. The BMW dealer would give us the option to purchase the right to order our new BMW sometime this fall. The X-Type was competetive in all respects to the Audi and BMW. In fact, specs for Jag are superior. The warranty, free maintaince for 48mos/50K, and our dealers free loaner car made the purchase a no brainer. Great little car with all the features to be superior to BMW and Audi.

    Used this vehicle in snow, rain, and dry conditions and it has performed beautifully in all! Great car for notherners who have to brave the winter wonderland. Beautiful vehicle, smooth ride and great interior.

  • Wow!!!!!! - 2002 Jaguar X-Type
    By -

    I was looking at a pre-owned Jaguar S- Type at the local (Orlando) BMW Dealership but did not like the snooty attitude of the salesperson. I called the Jaguar Dealership in Miami and worked out a deal over the phone for a brand new X-Type 3.0 Sport. I traded in my 2002 VW Beetle turbo with 800 miles on it. I absolutely LOVE my Jaguar. I am a Jaguar owner for life!!!

  • The 3.0 Manual is the Ultimate Jag - 2002 Jaguar X-Type
    By -

    This car defines sporty luxury. It is sleek, powerful, refined, fun to drive and perfectly balanced (can you say "become one with the car"?). I have yet to approach the handling or performance limits of the 3 liter/manual combination. But I can tell you that this car is truly fast and very tossable when you want it to be. And the AWD provides remarkable and reassuring traction, especially in the rain. Combine such performance with the Jags beatiful form inside and out, and its clearly the class act of luxury performance cars.

  • Amazing car for the price - 2002 Jaguar X-Type
    By -

    I have owned my jaguar x-type (sport, lowered, 3.0, manual) for about 8 months and 12k miles. I have never been let down once with this car (even with 120k miles,) although other reviewers will say different. The only trick with this car is that it doesnt like to be abused. If you keep everything maintained via recommendations on forums and not the dealership, everything will continue to run smoothly.
