Car Forum / Jaguar Cars / September 2004X-Type owners, how do you like it?
X-Type owners, are you happy with it? What do you dislike about it? > X-Type owners, are you happy with it? What do you dislike about it? > My wife and I own a 2003 X-Type 2.5 with an automatic and few options beyond the moon-roof, folding rear seats, and what was an option at that time, the in-dash single cd player. We love the car, have had a few moments when we hated the gas mileage. We now have 5K miles, bought as a leftover 2003 in October of 2003. Now getting 18 mpg in my wife's 2.5 commute to work, 28 mpg if we go on the highways from our house to NH or VT. BTW, we live in the Boston area of MA, USA. We would buy another in a heartbeat. Fit and finish is perfect, dealer is great and no flaws in 11 months. Paul >> X-Type owners, are you happy with it?

I live in the same area as you. I live in Saugus. Bought from Woburn Foreign Motors, salesman was Scott Hoffman, called him after I saw an ad in the paper and made a meeting time. Was waiting outside for me and we had a nice test drive. The car was for my wife and she was treated with great respect. The address is 394 Washington Stret, Rte. 128 at exit 36. The direct phone number is (339) 645-2258 and the website is www.woburnjaguar.com. Depending what you want in the car, there are tremendous deals at the shop. Other good things are free scheduled service. Awesome salesman, no pressure, just showed how great the car is and got us the best deal possible (had already shopped Lee Jag in Wellesley). If you do go to see Scott, please mention my name, Paul Twomey to him, might help in dealing if you are a referral. I get no cash for this, maybe a key chain. Scott is great and will be honest with you. Go in, drive the car, fill out the credit sh.t, and next day drive home. Little story about Jag's attention to detail' 4 wheel disc brakes-all wrapped in plastic to keep them clean. Also my email address is real if you want to contact me that way. Good luck.

The "little plastic bags" are there to prevent the rotors from excessive rust during shipping / port storage and should have been removed by Woburn during the pre-delivery service. They SHOULD NOT be left on. Call the dealer and have them removed. > > Little story about Jag's attention to detail' 4 wheel disc brakes-all > > wrapped in plastic to keep them clean.

Paul I have just part-exchanged mine for an S-Type 3.0 SE. I had an X-Type 2.0 Sport. LOVED IT!! Fantastic car for the money. Amazing how many people took a second glance at it whilst walking past it on the drive. Jags just have "something about them". MPG averaged 24 urban which isn't bad for my style of driving (pretty hard). Reliability - good. Comfort - great! Performance - good, but has to be pushed all the time.
