Model Power Engine Base Price; Jaguar S-Type: 235 hp: 3.0L V6 Gas: $48,335: Jaguar X-Type Sedan: 227 hp: 3.0L V6 Gas: $35,060: Jaguar XE SV: 592 hp: 5.0L Supercharged Part of the S-type's seductive quality on road trips, long or short, was its accomplished blend of a responsive chassis and a creamy ride. Space Practicality. I use my car mostly for longer journeys, so my average fuel consumption is approx. 33mpg, not bad for an older, relatively thirsty engine. Excellent performance (for me), good roadholding, quiet and comfortable, although my wife finds the seat too large and uncomfortable on a long journey. One of the best and most stylish Jaguars ever made. Best four wheels on the road. Well maintained and well cared for and is in very good condition. The XE’s windscreen pillars are no more obstructive than those of most other rivals so visibility is reasonably good (the Audi A4 is one of the best cars in the class for front visibility). The Looks notwithstanding, the S-Type is anything but a classic Jaguar, which, for the purposes of mass-market appeal, is not a bad thing. 5 (67%) 4 (29%) 3 (4%) 2 (0%) 1 (0%) 4.6. 27 reviews. The Jaguar F-Type is probably the best car Jaguar have produced in a long time. Since then, Jaguar have created an improved version of the car, with most of these improvements coming in the form of performance upgrades and tweaks. Everything from chassis and aero changes to infotainment has been altered to make an already good car great. Read hundreds of reviews about the '05 (a great year for this car), and went looking for an "S Type". Found one with 30K and was certified. Bought it and never looked back. And they’re still quick, accelerating from zero to 60 in less than 7 seconds. Jaguar built more than 15,000 copies of the Series 3 E-type, so it’s common enough to be found today yet rare enough to still turn heads at a morning meetup. Terrific club support thanks to the Jaguar Clubs of North America and other groups.
