A Beautiful Work of Mechanical Meyhem

The good news is this the sexiest car I've had and looks great. I got it for what I thought was a low price for Jaguar but I have put more than double what I paid for it into repairs on this beautiful work of a mechanical mayhem. I had some very expensive problems with the cooling system and the rear axle. This car gets terrible mileage and is expensive to fill with such a large tank. The leather seats cracked and come to find out they are pleather, not leather. I've now had a Jaguar & don't think I'll be getting another.

Fine Jaguar excellent value

This Jaguar is the perfect blend of reasonable size, interior, trunk, etc. Handling is superb, as is comfort and accessible controls. My reason for sale is having 3 cars, and two drivers that is one too many.

It's a Jaguar!

I got this car as a project and it's already in good condition. I am a certified mechanic and owning an older Jaguar is not intimidating, as it should be to most people. The looks and responses I get when on the road are priceless. It truly is a beautiful car. The level of luxury is good but could be better, but I knew what I was getting. Handling and response are superb being an all wheel drive. Build quality is excellent. I look forward to a satisfying relationship with this automobile.

Needed more work than expected. Get a thorough check. Expensive repairs so make sure you have a good shop near you to work on it.

Best car I have ever owned

This is by far the best car I ever owned, performance, reliability, style and the best AWD I drove in the snow.

Best Sedan to Own and Drive

The Jaguar is an excellent sedan to own and drive. Driving performance was excellent. In snow, it was the best sedan that I have driven in a Lake Tahoe blizzard. The All-Wheel Drive performed in the worst conditions. As a daily driver, it is comfortable and frugal. The interior is leather, but it is Spartan. The Automatic can shift to a sport mode that helps in traffic or running up mountain roads. On freeways, the V-6 3.0L lets you run easily at comfortable speeds. Yet, it allows you to accelerate when needed with crisp control.
