    A splendid driver

    Car is performing at peak performance, the V8 has wonderful low engine torque, so much for so little. I have done so many of the things that make this car desirable.

    A real treat to drive, not like earlier models

    Ford has done wonders with the technology and performance while keeping the stylish British marquee design elements. The color is so unique and gets very positive comments from my riders.

    Great car be sure and have a Jaguar mechanic thoroughly check it out before buying as maintenance and scheduled service may have been postponed.

    The most bang for the buck used you can get !

    I now have had a total of 5 jags and love them. You cannot find a more elagant, classy car than a Jag. There actually extremely reliable as i have had few problems overall, barely any. Can be fixed almost anywhere, and but other than the initial depreciation, (which all luxury cars take), they are a great buy! Regret not buying one sooner

    Nothing else like it

    There's not another vehicle like the Jaguar's prior to latest body style change. Elegant, powerful, distinguished, recognizable...reliable and efficient.

    The last great Jag

    These cars have everything a luxury cars should have. On top of that, the performance and gas mileage is excellent. Classic. Timelss style. Relaibility issues fixed by Ford before 2005. Best of both worlds.
