Advantages: Style, Class & Power

Disadvantages: Not Many

I have had the X-type since 2001,
It is a 3L Sport with all the toys:-
10 way seats, 17 inch wheels, sound system inc 6 way cd player, sat nav, fold mirrors, radar jammer & detector, skirts & spoilers.
Also it has been 'played with' by Arden to include their exhausts and engine mods.

I use the car for work (Sales throughout the UK and some Europe) and have now covered 90k+
Throughout it's life it has had 3 ABS faults, two of those faults were the ABS rings (£1200 to replace by Jaguar or £180 by my Jaguar specialist garage)
The other ABS fault was an abs sensor (£34)

So in total it has cost me £400 which isn't bad for 90k miles?

It still looks the business and can potter around town getting near 30mpg and when needed i can let the cat free (getting near 5.5 sec 0-60)

To conclude, the baby has cost me £35,000 new and £400 repairs over 4 years, she looks & sounds like she will continue to purr for many years to come.

I'm not saying i would never get rid of her but would definately stick with the Jaguar range. (Just about to place an order for a XJR)

Summary: Low maintenance, great drive & So much POWER
