Thinking of buying the 2004 Jaguar S-type?
No 2004 Jaguar S-type is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Here is what to know about the 2004 Jaguar S-type before buying one.
Recalls and complaints
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 25 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, engine and engine cooling and service brakes; have those parts checked.
What the specs mean
Power comes from the 3.0L 6-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Plan on about 37 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 12.4 L/100 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $21.70, and a 300 km weekend about $65.10. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What the S-type is like
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. At 340 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A good match for
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.
Try before you buy
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week with the S-type answers more than any brochure. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
The cost of driving it
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting.
Picking a year and a trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Over to you
Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.
