The JAGUAR X TYPE (2001-08) 4DR SALOON 2.5 V6 194 SE AUTO5 is a compact executive saloon, offering four-door comfort and a more premium feel than an ordinary family car.

It is best for drivers, couples or small families who value comfort and style, though fuel costs may be higher than with smaller-engined rivals. mycarcheck.com has recorded 1,446 checks across 668 different VINs.
