Im considering a 2002 or so X-type. Are there any common problems with the
Jaguar? Is it durable to keep?

Not only the usual reports from "car experts" but also from real people who
own the cars.

Of course the biggest problem with the X type is that it just doesn't have
enough cylinders to be a real Jag...

But Stuart, the X-type with more cylinders would equal twice the
failure rate. ;-)

Last time I checked, all Jaguars built from 1948 to 1968 were sixes ...

The x-type should be a good, average car. The Tarus is.

And the X-Type is based on the Ford Mondeo, not the Taurus   :)
