Jaguar X-Type

The Jaguar X Type made its debut in 2002. It was similar to the Mondeo. Unlike the Mondeo it was all-wheel drive model. The X Type came in two versions - 2.5 liter and 3.0 Liter. Both versions derived their power from V6 engines and automatic gear systems. The small sedan had disc brakes on all four tires, airbags in the side for those seated in the front and curtain airbags in the entire car. In 2003, 17 inch tires were introduced on the 3.0 model. The models also got headlights made of xenon, a warning system if something was obstructing the path of the vehicle in the back and heated front seats. In 2004, the 3.0 sedan got headlights that came on automatically, a back seat that was split and could be folded and a leather steering wheel. In 2005, the wagon joined the X Type lineup. The entry level model was drooped and a Vanden Plas edition was added. The Vanden Plas was equipped with heated leather front seats.

The 2007 Jaguar S Type comes as a sedan or wagon. Both the models are powered by a 3.0-liter V6 engine. The S Type has 16 inch tires, headlights and wipers that come on automatically, leather seats, front seats that can be moved by the touch of a button and a stereo system with a CD player and six speakers. The wagon adds a system that helps the driver park the car while reversing and an expensive music system with 10 speakers. Other equipment that can be had on the Jaguar S Type are 18 inch tires, heated seats and a navigation system.

2008 Jaguar X-Type
The undeniably distinctive jaguar cat hood ornament leaps forward on the 2008 Jaguar X-Type introducing a luxurious sport sedan that is also available as a wagon. Unmistakable craftsmanship and style are very evident in this driver's car and passengers are well attended to as well. However, this Jag doesn't carry the price tag-or the driving experience and extraordinary luxury-one usually associates with a Jaguar. .

Although it is powered by a proficient 3.0 liter V6 engine that produces 227 horsepower and comes with all wheel drive standard and a 5 speed automatic transmission, it is still lacking the power found in many sedans produced by other manufacturers. In the 0 to 60 test the X-Type came in at an unimpressive 8.2 seconds. .

This entry level Jaguar is available as both a sedan and wagon in only one well equipped trim. Standard equipment includes 16-inch alloy wheels for the sedan and 17 inch alloy wheels for the wagon. Both model come equipped with a sunroof, automatic headlights and wipers, leather upholstery, real wood trim, tilt and telescoping steering wheel, 10-way power front seats with driver memory, a trip computer and a six-speaker audio system with CD player. more
