    5 Stars Fancy a ride in my Big Pussy? Diamond review 29/11/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Classic Jaguar looks and comfort

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Diesel take a bit of getting used to

    Now before I start getting pervy notes from blokes, I have to point out that I'm male, and more importantly the Big Pussy I refer to is my Jaguar aka 'The Big Cat'. However, if there are any women who want to send me pervy notes, please don't let me stop you! ~ Background ~ I do around 25,000 miles in my car every year, which entitles me to a company car. My previous model, a Vauxhall Zafira 2.2 Elegance, had served me very well over the previous 3 years but it was really starting to show the signs of a lot of miles in a short time. I was fortunate enough early this year to have finally got a ... more

    4 Stars Yes, still a real Jaguar 14/02/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Refined, quick, capable chassis, plush

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not vast inside, some cheap touches

    At first glance, the X-type might struggle to make it onto a shortlist of “sports executive” diesels. The 150bhp 3-series continues to dominate the class bolstered by value-for-money special editions, the much-hyped Honda Accord offers a lower-cost alternative, the Audi A4 offers best-in-class build quality, and there is the Mercedes C-class range – both the last two with a choice of engines. So with just 128bhp from its Mondeo-sourced engine, the X-type doesn’t seem to have much on offer. Or so I thought – having ruled out the Honda on the basis of an unsettled ride, I had resigned myself to ... more

    4 Stars When is a Jag not a Jag? 26/01/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages runs ok, very nice inside, not expencive (for a Jag that is)

    Disadvantages Disadvantages poor steering, not quite what you used to get from a Jaguar

    My much loved Jeep 4by4 recently had to go into the dealers for a week and Jeep assistance gave me a new Jaguar X type 2.0 Diesel while it was a away. This I think gives me a chance to write an un biased review seeing as I dont (a) own one and (b) did not particually want to use one for a week. Everyone connected with the lending of the car said the same thing.. "of course its just a ford mondeo really" Well its not,but niether is it a jaguar in the old sense. The one they gave me was all black with just a touch of chrome and it did look very smart but the body shape is,it has to be said, very ... more

    3 Stars X-Type Diesel - OK if you get a good one. 20/06/2004
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Jaguar badge. Styling. Lots of options to play with.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Very little equipment. Cramped interior. Some not very refined.

    I have to start by saying I don't own or run an X-Type Diesel, came very close to doing so, but then discovered the Accord Diesel and purchased that instead. I test drove one of the launch cars last year at Company Car in Action at the Millbrook Proving Ground. It was an option laden d Sport and looked superb in black. Very impressive was the overall refinement, I informed the Jaguar staff on the stand quite honestly that I would be replacing my much liked 2.5 V6 (petrol) Omega with this car. However my wife was not present to ride in this car and I booked a test drive with our local Jaguar ... more

    4 Stars What a great car. 29/06/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Economical, comfortable, good looks

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A bit noisy when cold - poor customer service in the North

    I bought my SE diesel in Jaguar Racing Green in 2004 down in Guildford (Fox's of Guildford). Fantastic customer service by people who care. The JRG colour was gorgeous - sparkles of gold when in sunlight - but showed the dirt quite quickly. Comfort : very nice interior in champagne leather throughout and with a choice of different veneers for the trim - I chose walnut maple. One small niggle was that for such a large car, the leg room in the back was poor. Economy: Urban motoring which I did mostly was 34 to 35 mpg - I once managed 62 mpg on a motorway trip but had to stick to under 55 mph ... more
