by the way: im not sure if this has been done before, so if it has, mods feel free to lock n delete it n stuff.
 
Yep, I'm in. :D

My Dad owns a Jagaur X-Type 3.0 Auto, and it is pretty nice. The Fordness does show though I'm afraid, the flimsy build quality leading to quite a few rattles (although some have dissapeared now! :)). Engine is smooth, it is comfortable and has some poke. And people call it a Mondeo, it is quite different to one!
 
my dad has a 2.0s x type, i doesn't look as nice as the 3.0, but its really comfortable on the motorway. he's gettin rid of it next week, and ive got to search auto trader for a comfortable cruiser, with 10,000 miles on, 1 year old, max probably £19,000, im thinkin of an xtype 2.7 twin turbo diesel, what dya think?
 
Do you mean S-Type? ;)

Yeah, I think that will be good. I must admit, we did test drive the X-Type and S-Type (all petrol) before we got the Jag and we didn't think it was worth the extra money for the S. Of course, the ride was smoother, it was a little quiter and roomer but it just didn't seem worth all the extra money. The Diesel S-Type is supposed to be a good car also, so I think it's worth getting. :)
 
yeah, i did mean the stype, pressed the wrong key! im gonna scout out autotrader, see what they got goin, if you know anyone one this site who likes jags, we need a few more members so we can keep this thread alive
 
erm, the x-type, except it doesn't have mondeo interior, ford badge , alloys, body shape, cheap-feel, its a good jag, honestly, it glides along the highway/motorway, unlike a mondeo, yhe xtype only has minor mondeo parts in it. its still a great car
 
The mechanical side of the car is pretty similar to a Mondeo, but the engines are tweaked, the suspension is tweaked for a better ride and bigger engined models have 4WD. I'm sure there are other mechanical differences. Then there's pretty much a complete exterior and interior difference to the Mondeo (apart from the switches and buttons ect).
 
Jaguars are cool, they're classey and the sporty versions are fast, they also built the E-Type, a car that deserves it's current status.
 
So they´re gonna destroy the E-type in same way Shelby recently destroyed the Cobra?? I really loath such things! If things are not broken, why fix them??

As for Jag, no one can ignore the original E-type, or the fact that the worlds fastest production car once was a Jag; The XJ220!
 
Ops, I read " big, bald and British" at first... :dopey:

Put me up! I more of an Aston guy myself, but as I do think the Jaguar E-type convertible is the most beautiful car ever made, I might fit in a bit...:)
 
XJ220 is one of my favorite supercars, there is a British racing green XJ220 in my city.

but no I dont want to join.
 
ok, ive put you two up, have you seen those concepts they've made? it was an r-type, or somthing like that, and dont forget the f-type, i didn't ever like that car.
 
Yeah the Jag R-Type was one of the most visually stunning cars I've seen in a long time, the F-Type was nice too I thought. But the R-Type showed class in it's design moreso than the F-Type.
 
Count me in man.

My dad owns a Jaguar Daimler Century, 100th anniversary car of jaguar built together with Daimler. Gotta love that white leather man.

Made 200 times worldwide. A real rarity

In General Jaguars designs are outstanding. Black paint, black rhims looks amazing on jaguar.

Never liked Mercedes edgy designs.
 
hey cheers! that site is awesome! i absolutley love the x-type race car, if you don't know what it is, it's this;



and i put the first one as my avatar!
 
With regards to that mockup, why on earth did they put that wing on the back. I don't think the new XK-R will have a rear wing and no spy shots have hinted at such.
 
I'll join :)

I love the new Xk, the old Xk, the Xj, the S type R, and the X type estate. The saloon is cool too.
