General Comments:

I love this car's style and comfort.

Very reliable, and averages 27 mpg.

Spent less than £1000.00 on servicing and parts in the last eight years. NEVER been to Jaguar for service. Transmission just rebuilt by local company £950.00.

Never had problems with windows, door pillars.

I do not nurture this car. Had it up to 130mph; just wind noise and more to go.

Looking at the forum, I guess I have been lucky. I will run it until it falls apart. Just can't find anything else. Like the new XF, but the style of the S is better..

Faults:

Microchip on drivers doorlock intermitently faulty, rectified quickly and efficiently by dealer.

General Comments:

A fabulous car, I have owned and driven many different car's but the S Type turns heads like no other executive saloon I've been in before! Performance is good and I love it. I would recommend the Jaguar experience to anyone (The dealers are extremely helpful too!)
