Overview & Reviews

The S-Type gets new 10-spoke alloy wheels for 2001, along with exterior color options Onyx White and Roman Bronze. The folks at Jaguar have decided to move the six-disc CD changer from the glovebox to the trunk. ISOFIX is added to the rear for securing child seats and Reverse Park Control now comes standard. An electronically controlled, speed-proportional power steering system is new this year and the software for the Voice Activation Control system has been upgraded. A Deluxe Communications Package featuring a Motorola Timeport digital phone system is a new option.

• Classic styling, serene and stable ride, cool voice-activation technology.

• Too much Ford switchgear, lack of interior storage space, sloppy transmission, high price tag.

  This Jaguar ROARS - 2001 Jaguar S-Type
  By Jim Cossack - August 9 - 11:36 am

  This is by far and away the most fun Ive ever had getting from point A to point B and back again!! There are too many great features I love about this car to mention. The only negative about my 4.0 S-Type is the transmission does lag a bit when down shifting into the passing gear. But Whoa...it makes up for lost time!! The reliability has been excellent. This car has performed above my expectations both inside and out.

  Fantastic looking car. Do not have a single complaint. Most comfortable ride of any car I have ever owned. Climate control and sound system are excellent. No mechanical problems of any kind so far.

  More Fun Than Legally Permitted - 2001 Jaguar S-Type
  By Mike L - December 12 - 12:16 pm

  We bought our pampered car off lease. We did have a problem within a month or so of owning the car (transmission problems), but the dealership quickly resolved the problem and we continue to have a smile on our face each time we drive it. It is silk on wheels. It looks great, is quiet and solid inside and has excellent road manners. It is one of the best values in a luxury class. I’m surprised there aren’t more sold because this car is a better ride, with greater performance than most in its price range.

  Jauguar S-Type/Style & Performance - 2001 Jaguar S-Type
  By Stephen Bailey - August 15 - 2:00 am

  Leased my 2001 S-Type in March, 2001 and havent looked back since. The car is a "looker" and different style than the typical Mercedes/BMW that seems to be everywhere. Ive enjoyed quality performance and a quiet ride. The S-Type has performed excellently and I look forward to driving it in the future.

  2001 Jag S type - 2001 Jaguar S-Type
  By Andyman - November 24 - 10:00 am

  I have never had this much fun driving! The exterior gets people to turn and look and I get a lot of thumbs up from other drivers. The drop down to passing gear is a little hesitant but acceleration more than makes up for it. The premium sound system rocks. The rear view mirrior shakes with the volume at 50%. The best part of driving this machine is how it handles on curvey, hilly roads. This car has far exceeded my expectations.

  The Red Kitty Cat - 2001 Jaguar S-Type
  By Albert - July 5 - 7:00 pm

  Found this car in my local newspaper of all places. With about 55K miles on it and perfect condition. Lost the right front wheel bearing about 1 month after purchase. 56K miles and the right front window regulator at about 63k. I have taken the car on two trips from Cincinnati, one to DC and the other to the Outer Banks and both trips were pure fun. The current tires are useless in snow or ice and I park the cat when the freezy skid stuff falls.

  Beautiful Look - 2001 Jaguar S-Type
  By Ashraf - May 23 - 10:00 am

  I had GM, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda before. I was looking for an Accord or a Camry. I saw this beautiful used Jag including 3 years extended waranty that I can get for a price new accord or a Camery. No Comparison. No comparison. No comparison. Do not hesitate. This is a beautiful piece of art. Head turner. Jaguar should work a litle on Gas. 12.4 litters for 100 km in Canada in town. Rick Koch, thanks for recommending this car to me.

  Fun and Reliable - 2001 Jaguar S-Type
  By Funtodrive - March 15 - 2:00 am

  Initial quality exceptionally good. Only problem in 2 and 1/2 years was the display in the radio. The dealership replaced the radio in a day. The 17 inch wheels and automatic (computer controlled) suspension is unbelieveable.... like cornering on rails. This car puts a smile on my face.
