Default Jaguar Type S Questions....

Do we have any Members here who have direct experience with the Type S Jaguar? I'm looking at one...an '06. I've heard the early production cars had issues...Anyone know of a Type S Forum? Thanks very much....Zebulon

You'll be alright with an 06.....I think it's the pre-02 or 03 that it's best to stay clear off......... in fact wasn't the last face lift done in 06, which will be even better if it's one of those.

I know of a guy who has one and he adores it, although I was surprised at how much more cramped it felt inside compared to my 9-5.

I test drove one before I bought my Saab and was disappointed. They look nice, but don't feel very special to drive and the interior feels pretty cheap. Even compared to the SS interior.

All the scratch plastic in the 9-3SS and dash rattles are not found in the Jag.
