#37 of 53 '02 X-Type 3.0 Manual by flighttester Feb 06, 2005 (3:13 pm)
I've owned an '02 X-Type 3.0 with the manual gearbox for a few years now and I have nothing but good things to say about the car. If I had to list the negatives, I'd have to say the rather unusual clutch engagement and the lack of two cup holders in the console. They've since fixed the cupholder issue but I don't know about the clutch. My 3.0 came with everything, including the GPS Nav System. It's black on black and that color combo as well as the engine-transmission combo probably make it a rare cat, at least in the USA.   It's my wife's car and she loves it. No major problems at all and the few small ones were corrected by the excellent warranty. The car is approaching 40,000 miles and still looks and drives like new.   It was my first Jaguar, but it very likely won't be my last.   My warranty included 'complementary' services including oil changes at 10,000 mile intervals. I 'complement' that by supplying my own synthetic (Mobil 1 5W30) since Jaguar does not use synthetic oil in the X-Type but I use it in everything I own.

Anybody having alignment/tire wear problems on their X type. Needed 2 alignments within 15K. It could just be lousy roads here outside PHilly, but I'd like some input. Check Cherry Hill Classic Cars in C.H., N.J. We went past 4 other dealers to get the deal they gave us, and they they treated us like luxury car buyers, not deal chasers.

#41 of 53 Best Experience Ever by tomslyck Apr 17, 2005 (5:34 pm)
We bought an X-type in January. We searched the web, found a pretty good price from a dealer 40 miles away. Then we called and discussed it on the phone. Then we took that information to our local dealer and he was really good about giving us a better deal. He didn't use a hard sell approach, but simply sat down with us and went through the details. I'd buy another car from him in a heartbeat.

Replying to: aironrj (Sep 26, 2004 9:28 pm) I got mine for $29K with heated front seats. You shd. pay around this price range. I bought my brand new X-type 3.0 Jan. 29. I found out that buying a car towards the end of the month is a good strategy since salesmen have to meet their monthly quota or something like that. Now that Ford/Jaguar reported negative last quarter earnings, they want your business.
#44 of 53 '04 XJ8 9,000 miles for 54,995 by euphonium Apr 23, 2005 (2:46 pm)
A NW dealer has been sitting on this unit for a little over 6 months. It has the standard equipment, nothing fancy, & Radiance Red.   Last December, a few sold for less than $40,000 on e bay and they had less than 10,000 miles.   Considering the Sales Tax is 8.8% - what should this Jag sell for today?
