The JAGUAR X TYPE (2001-08) 4DR SALOON 2.0 V6 SE PLUS AUTO5 is a compact executive saloon: a four-door alternative to family hatchbacks. In the UK used market, it competes with older BMW 3 Series, Audi A4 and Mercedes-Benz C-Class models, standing out through Jaguar styling and an automatic gearbox. With its V6 petrol engine and five-speed automatic, the X-Type suits commuting, longer journeys and drivers who value comfortable motoring over sporty urgency. It can serve couples or small families needing four doors and a boot, while its premium character offers an accessible entry into Jaguar ownership at used-car prices. mycarcheck.com has recorded 204 checks across 130 different VINs, a useful sample; these show average recorded mileage of 80,000 and annual mileage of 6,000.
