I own a 2001 S Type 4.0 and have not had one single problem in 25,000 miles.Wonderful car! This was my second Jag after I purchased a 2000 S Type 3.0 and almost went Lemon Law after having an unusual amount of problems...Jaguar replaced my car and made me a customer for life. And despite what I have read about pre-1994 XJ40 sedans I went and purchased a 1991 Jade Green Sovereign. OK everyone, stop the whispering...I am not crazy- as a matter of fact..I Love this car! It has personality, ride is superb,everything works and it still turns heads do to its classic lines. And it doesn't have to cost a fortune to fix if you spend the time and LOOK for parts online at the many web sites geared towards the Jaguar owner.I have had good experiences with Coventry West in Georgia..very helpful. Oh, and make sure you have a mechanic you can trust. I take this baby up to 90 on the Florida Turnpike and I don't feel a single vibration. I also recommend Pirelli P4000 tires. The Bridgestone Turanza tires on my S Type are garbage. I like reading the stuff you folks write...its nice to know I'm not alone out there when I get accused of loving my cars more than my spouse!!!

91s can be great cars if they have the 3 major problem areas sorted out (Diff, self-levelling, head gasket).
I sell quite few when I can find nice ones.
You said FL... Do you live near Orlando? If so I know of some GREAT Techs in town. Also, if you're in Central FL..

I'm down in Ft.Lauderdale, originally from upstate NY...I was lucky to find a 91 that was an actual Palm Beach car, garaged and no fade or sun bleaching and PERFECT chrome all around- and the windows have only factory tint. Another note: I strongly recommend Maguires Scratch X to remove small scratches and even fade on older cars...my buddy has an older red Porsche and this stuff is amazing at feeding the paint and bring back the shine...its in a tube and I got it at Pep Boys. Good Luck! David |

I was recently at my local Jaguar dealership and one of the salespeople told me that the new XJ was not going to be debuted until April 2003 at the NYC or Detroit, I can't remember which, auto show. Is this old news? I was under the impression that the debut was to take place in September 2002 in Paris. |

Can anyone tell me what names Jaguar used for the interior and exterior colors of my 95 XJ6? To me the exterior is black, the interior tan. The following codes are listed on the door panel plate: Paint= PDT Trim = SDC. Mike |

If it is Black with a deep tan leather interior... Then the exterior color is oficially called Black and the Interior color should be Coffee. Shoot. I got a Black on Coffee 95 on the lot.. lemme check it.. Yeahup, you got Black over Coffee Bill |

| I take mine with cream and sugar. | |

After reading the Kia rants... Maybe I need Irish Coffee |

| Hertz gave me a Kia Rio, when I went back to NYC last week. I can rant for a while on what a steaming heap of crap it was. | |
