Cars from the early 2000s have reached such a high point in refinement and ease of use that I really see no point of buying a brand new car anymore. X-type, C5, A4, E class, etc... a good one with an automatic gearbox is all the car you need really
Interested in exactly this model and year, for sale elsewhere, so looked for reviews - glad I found this one. Informative and somewhat hilarious .''I need a holiday'' - indeed you did. Hope you got one! Enjoyed the vid, thanks.
that was a strange day
I really enjoyed your review. I am currently on my second Rover 75 Diesel of 2018 and have been wondering how an X-Type might compare. The review gave me a really good feel for the car, they are very smart looking motors. It's also refreshing to see an informative and reserved presentation style, as opposed to someone who might be a bit over the top!
thank you, your comments are much appreciated
I own a 2.0 x type excelent car. I also own a very nice rover 75. The rover is a lot smoother ride.
Great classic maybe not always cheap to run. But it has air of prestige. Thumbs up.
Yes a lot of car for the money
I Love jaguars x types im getting One from start when i saw the car i tought some old sedan what old People drive but when i looked to all jaguars x types my mind Hell Yea!
Luxury motoring at an affordable price
Barrie could you do a whole Jaguar x types car Tour like a review
How reliable is this 2009 and 2010 diesel version? I wanna buy one but they are really rare with low milage over here (belgium) im planning to drive around 80.000km in it will one with 200-220k km be to risky ?
i think you should anticipate problems at that mileage
@@BarrieCrampton okey thanks, what about 120.000 km ?
Nice review, I have a 2005 2.0 X Type XS and it is a really nice car, had a recent problem with EGR and a split pipe, £ 254 to fix but all else ok, would recommend all day.
great value cars,
Yeah, probably not a good idea to adjust the steering rake/angle whilst driving, good vid though, I got a 2.2d sovereign estate, I love it. I'm from Chorley so I recognise the area well.
I am surprised at the lack of electrical stuff, manual seats, manual steering column...i have a 2000 s-type and i have the full kit. Or are some items extras.....?
the higher up the range you go, the better the specification
Just bought an estate Amy idea how to see outside temperature on the dash please
thought i recognised those streets. bamber bridge/walton le dale
yep, our garage is in Walton le Dale
These Jaguars were having problems with the clutch / fly-wheel back in the early part of 2000, So it’s strange to hear that Jaguar had not got the problem solved by 2009. ?
Nice video! Like these cars , are they good for long journeys , like 1000mile ?
Very comfortable, Jaguars are Great Grand Tourers, like being in a big armchair
No, they are not good for long journeys, they are perfect for it. One of the most comfortable cars I've ever driven, really relaxing too. Put on some good music and you won't even notice the distance travelled.
What he said!
@@chrwl007 Massively underrated car.
Great review.What are the basic costs for insurance and road tax. I'am 61 and have a nissan note at present, but may have the opportunity to take possession of an Ex type soon. Thanks.
Agent X20 best get the reg number of the car you may be getting and go to comparethemarket.com and get an exact quote, otherwise its different for everyone, age, postcode, endorsements et, ps thanks for watching
Barrie crampton: Much appreciated. Nice one.
Agent X20
I drive a 2.0 litre X Type SE, diesel .... absolutely brill, lovely smooth drive & very positive in every way !!
£155.00 Road Tax, £265.00 Insurance fully comp, regularly get 580/600 miles from a full tank !!
I’d recommend to anyone !!!
Happy Motoring & God Bless
Ps .... 6th gear not needed, even on motorways.
Clocktowerpreacher: Many thanks for the information. Sounds good.
Awesome review!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it
Awesome vid Barrie!
Thanks for that, much appreciated
Pretty nice cars, especially for their price today. Diesel is the most sensible choice if you want low consumption as well, but I don't know how expensive is the maintenance (mainly parts). I would also avoid diesels with DPF (so 2008-2009 models).
DPF's were an option, not standard on X-Type 2.0D even in the later facelift models from 2008 onwards, not so sure about the 2.2D though, I know because my 2008 doesn't have a DPF ;-)
Was that a burled wood dash typical for an X Type? It looked like something other than wood.
spin yes that was standard but there are other finishes
Thank you Barrie.
very funny your frustrations with people cutting in front of you
+Charles Omoshola i seem to attract them 😎
This engine needs a sixth gear on the motorway a think
That's the reason why I bought the 2.2D - the 6th gear.
And what’s mad enough the ford mondeo has the same engine and you have the option of the 6 speed manual box
Could you do a Jaguar x type car Tour review?
X type?
you have elegant watch
Omega Seamaster, I have had it for 25 Years, its a great watch
@@BarrieCrampton when i get to your age i want to be like you smart and elegant. blessing cheers 🎩
souri mel thank you 😎

Nice video

Thanks for that, i will check out your channel and see if i cant learn something. Thanks again
Yea

I love the styling and interior but it is a noisy engine that! A Jaguar that sounds like a Transit! Sure I'd get used to it! 😅 They should have updated it to the PSA / Ford unit used in the later Mondeo. Much better more refined unit!
Not as reliable though, lot of issues with the PSA units being seen now in the SType. Rougher but very frugal and hard wearing which is why it's popular now on the used market
There are some shocking drivers on the road.
especially near where i work
it's not a good position for driving a car.
its a great position, safe and comfortable too
the closer you are to the steering wheel, the less you can see past the Windscreen A pillars, that can be the difference between Life and Death to an on coming motorcyclist, the nearer you are the more restricted your elbows are an are more vulnerable in a side impact, elbow, arm , collar bone damage, the less you can bend your legs, the more likely you are to sustain ankle and knee damage in a frontal impact, that's if you are lucky and don't have your thigh bones pushed back through your pelvis, the air bag deploys at up to 220 mph, so the nearer you are to that, the more facial and chest damage you get, if you drive with your hands at the 1/4 to 3 position and thumbs through the steering wheel, you will get them broken in a side or 3/4 impact.
the first thing they tell you on a racing course is do not feed the steering wheel through your hands, do not take your hands of the steering wheelat all or else you have no idea which direction the front wheels are facing.
the "ideal" driving position was thought up in the days of cross ply tyres and non power steering cars, now instead of needing all your upper body strength to steer, you can do it with your little finger.
so in closing i sit in a position that i find comfortable, i have very fast reactions and have been driving for 43 years (legally and on tracks a lot longer), the only injuries i have sustained in crashes, both motorbike and car are when i was driving my girlfriends car and i was sat too close to the steering wheel because i didnt want to move her seat. You drive where you want, and i will drive where i want, but in all my years giving people test drives one thing has become blatantly obvious, the closer that someone sits to the steering wheel, the worse the driver they are!!!
Thanks for watching!!! and you are welcome!!!!!!
@@BarrieCrampton It's a good answer actually. Nice tips!
Diesel and manual transmission in a Jaguar... i do not have to say more.
like someone cares about your opinion
you do care, obviously
People who have no idea at all what Jaguar is about say stupid things about diesels. If William Lyons (the founder) were still alive he would have been the first to stick a diesel engine in the whole range. Jaguar are getting into Electric in a big way now and that's typical of real Jaguar culture.
Jaguar have never been solely about large automatic petrol saloons. Read up about them. The same with the fools who taunted about the car being 10%.mondeo. Lots of Jags from its initial golden era are magpie cars, built with engines from other suppliers and suspensions taken from other manufacturers. Bill Lyons was all about doing it on the cheap and created something amazing from the different bits. Jaguar might be marketed in the Premier sector and make premium cars but they are a totally different manufacturer to BMW and Mercedes and people should get over it.
