That's what I did - I moved from an SUV to the Jag and while I missed my truck on a couple of trips to Home Depot, otherwise my Jag does it all.
I will be looking out for you at the stop lights  !

Unbelievably, while researching online last night for cars,,,a 2004 Jag, Black Raspberry, 16,514 miles showed up on my screen at a local dealership 1 mile away! Priced at $24,000. I did the Edmunds TMV and I believe it came back closer to $30,000. I'm afraid to even drive by,,,I might write a check the second I return from a test drive,,, still not sure that is the best decision for me right now, based on the "no dealership in town" issue.

Axiom, you're a bad influence! I bought a car last night -- it's not the Jag. I will have a Jag SOME day. I'm glad I discovered the X-type in my search for a new vehicle. I love the style and the price. The dealer in town (or lack of) was the dealer breaker, since this forum was an eye opener to some issues with the car. My plan will be to buy in 2009,which might be the last year they make this model.
Enjoy the ride,,,,,,and the envious looks!

Is that LaCrosse wisconsin?
There are good cheap jags in lax sometimes, but the lack of a dealer would scare me.

Yes, LaCrosse Wisconsin. Do you know the city? The AWD sounded like a great fit for this area, however, like you said, no dealer in town makes it a hard car to buy.
I will have one someday now that I know what the price is on the X-type. Do you have one?

Small world.Did you make it for Octoberfest? What is a 3-series? (Sounds like a BMW?) What is the type R? Is the xtype too small for you? There is a 2004 cherry red with 16,000 sitting at Keenan's (West Salem) Price is $22,000,blue book for that year/miles is closer to $30,000. Lots of warranty left, and YOU even live in a city that has a Jag dealer!

But i did make it for irishfest. Yes, the smaller BMW. The X-type R would be one with a supercharged engine and stiffer suspension, things like that. Is that cherry red one a stick?

It's an automatic, is that a bad thing? Probably for a guy it is. With a cell phone ringing in your pocket, do you really want to bother shifting too? Maybe it has a tiptronic, like most new automatic cars have, you can still shift, but without the clutch. Not sure the Jag has it. I get the supercharged, but what is the scoop about a stiffer suspension?
How was Irishfest? Good crowd?
