Overview & Reviews

Jaguar's simplified model lineup now consists of two models: the X-Type 3.0 Sedan and Sportwagon. Stability control, a power moonroof and split-folding rear seat are now standard on the sedan, while the Sportwagon gains a driver memory seat, premium sound system, rain-sensing windshield wipers and a wood-and-leather-trimmed steering wheel. Jaguar has also reorganized the options packages slightly this year.

• Sure-footedness of all-wheel drive, classic Jaguar looks, nice highway ride.

• Lack of power, some interior bits more Ford-like than Jaguar-esque, tight rear-seat entry, no manual transmission available.

  Jaguar X-Type - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By Adam - November 15 - 11:16 pm

  I bought it thinking I may become a Jaguar fan. I think it was the worst financial mistake I have ever made. Engine died at 2000 miles!! I am on my THIRD transmission and FOURTH set of lightbulbs in my headlights and on my THIRD set of tires. This is only after 12000 miles. I am finally going to trade it in for a BMW, a car that will acually last. I have been to the dealer so many times I know the employees on a first name basis, I think I have put more miles on my Kia Rio than I have put on my Jaguar. STAY AWAY!!! FAR AWAY

  Cool little cat - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By macktee - November 3 - 6:03 am

  Moving from a 1994 XJ-6 to the 2007 X-type, I was pleasantly surprised by the same "Jaguar" feel of the car. It is as quick as the older car and feels every bit as stable. Very nice ride, smooth and corners like a go-kart. Get the "luxury" package. BIG difference in the interior accomodations and well worth the cost. Its small, but its definately a Jaguar!

  Elegant Cat, Undeserved Poor Review! - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By Jaffrey - March 19 - 1:00 pm

  The typical herd mentality of reviews is on full display here. For instance: 1. Reviewer claims the X type lacks power. Yet it offers more power than both the competing BMW 328xi and Mercedes C280 4 Matic. 2. Reviewer claims interior is cheap. Yet both BMW and Mercedes ship with Leatherette seats (that is vinyl) and the C280 in particular has cheap chrome around the drink holders that flake off. The interior of the x type is real leather and plastic at least as good as the competitor 3. The x type has better 0-60 acceleration than both the BMW 328xi and C280 4 Matic. I am glad I bought one after test driving the competition. Its beautifully to look at and drive.

  Absolute comfort and power. Real eye catcher. I get more looks and positive comments than I ever received with my BMW, Audi, MB 320C.

  GREAT CAR - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By GreekDaddy91 - December 31 - 2:43 pm

  The Jaguar X-types are the best car for the money. In Jet Black it is hot and it definitely gains much attention on the road.

  By BrianJaguar - November 24 - 2:33 pm

  This is an awesome car, I bought it and I love the handling. It just hugs the corner, with its 227 HP, it just gets up and goes. Its luxury with power, I love it!!

  New X-Type - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By cm1 - January 21 - 5:00 pm

  I really enjoy this car. Its sporty and fast. The interior comforts are beautiful although a little small (but Im coming from a Sedan Deville.) There is a lot of power and the trans is smooth. The size is perfect and Im impressed with the safety, including side curtain airbags. Its a got a beautiful paint job and nice leather- great radio with CD. Corners perfectly and really holds the road and its good in the snow. So far Im very happy with my new car.

  Understated, Elegant & Reliable - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By markle1 - August 27 - 11:05 pm

  You get all the luxury without a BMW or Mercedes price tag. Bought it with 70K miles and put a little TLC into it (brakes, oil, air) and have had no problems for the last 10K miles. This Jag loves the open road. Rides straight, quiet and comfortable. Put it in cruise control and drive from San Diego to Phoenix with 100% ease and peace of mind.

  X Type positive - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By fongo - May 16 - 8:36 pm

  Driving this car down the highway makes by blood type go X positive all the way! I just picked it up a few weeks ago and I love it. Very smooth riding & superb luxury. Great power & mileage. Its AWD makes the car hug the road and makes you feel safe.

  Stay away! - 2007 Jaguar X-Type
  By BlueMountain - April 28 - 8:10 am

  At 87K miles most would expect all parts of the powertrain to be intact but not with the X type. The dealership tells me I need a transmission, axle, transfer case along with water pump. I just fixed the wiper motor and the engine is pinging. I thought I just got the trouble car but I learned the transmission went out on 2 other owners I talked to in the Jaguar waiting room. No wonder they offer only a 50K mile warranty for such an expensive car. The one thing that hurts so much is the value drops like gravity. I owe 20K on this car and it looks nice and all but is only worth 11K according to KBB. Consider yourself warned. Stay away from this car.
