  Value for the Money - 2004 Jaguar X-Type
  By Roy Fazio - October 3 - 2:20 am

  When shopping, compared my X-Type to Audi, MC C Class and BMI and after options were piled (leather, CD,etc.,) the other vehicles were $5K more. This car comes loaded. Car handles great and is fun to drive. Solidly built. Had a few minor trim problems when i first bought the car (vents loose and visor mirrors), but dealership swiftly too care of problems. Car is great in snow too.

  X-Type Unreliable - 2004 Jaguar X-Type
  By Kelley - September 25 - 4:26 pm

  From the time that I purchased this vehicle, it spent more time in the shop then I spent driving the vehicle. Unfortunately, I decided to purchase this vehicle instead of lease. The car has very little residual value now at 55,000 miles and I have had to put over $3000 into the vehicle in the last two months because of the poor quality of this vehicle. The vehicle is pretty to look at and yes it will turn heads, however, it has been a complete waste of money for me. I am a professional and do not have time to waste getting a vehicle repaired constantly.

  Sleek Cat - 2004 Jaguar X-Type
  By hallin - September 12 - 10:00 am

  I am coming off a very positive 10 year experience with my C-class Benz. I purchased a red (Radiance) Xtype 3.0 in the spring of 2004. With the Premium package, the Jag looked and felt better than the Benz. Gas mileage was not as bad as some have reported. Local overall gas mileage is around 22 mpg. With a hefty price increase on the Benz, the cost was favorable. The four year bumper to bumper warranty was an asset also. The new Benz no longer offers the bumper to bumper warranty. I have had friends thank me for allowing them to sit in this vehicle.

  Great Car To Drive - 2004 Jaguar X-Type
  By Fizzle - September 6 - 8:40 pm

  Bought this from dealer as a demo with only 1600 miles. Car handles great and has never needed any major repairs. I am upgrading to the new XJ as a result of my wonderful experience with this model. X-type is an entry level Jag but if you want a car different from every other model on the road this is it.

  Sure-footed in bad weather - 2004 Jaguar X-Type
  By Kellylvms - September 5 - 10:00 am

  This car performs incredibly well on snowy and icy roads. Thats not to say that anyone should purposefully be taking risks in bad weather, but this car has proved itself. We live on a hill with a winding lane. One day last winter I started down the lane and realized I had forgotten something. I put the car in reverse, and while on ice and snow, the car went backward without hesitation up a hill and around curves. I was amazed! Most cars cant get up my lane in winter going forward! I can only hope that the repair record for this car is excellent because I plan to keep it for a long, long time.

  JAGUAR X TYPE - 2004 Jaguar X-Type
  By lance alspaugh - July 31 - 10:00 am

  glorified Ford Tauras. We were trapped by the Jaguar Promotional Media blitz when this vehicle entered the market. While it seems to be well built, quality of desirable extras (needs a decent stereo) very little leg room and extremely small back seat. You get what you pay for in this case. Great on the freeway, however this does not make up for its shortcomings nor can we recommend the vehicle.
