Buying the 2005 Jaguar S-type

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2005 Jaguar S-type for sale by us right now. Before buying the 2005 Jaguar S-type, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the S-type

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 85 complaints with NHTSA, most often about fuel system, fuel/propulsion system and service brakes; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

Specs, explained

Its 3.0L 6-cylinder drives 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.

It is rated 12.4 L/100 km combined: about 37 litres every 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $65.10 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,350 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

A good match for

It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Practical details

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. In plain terms, its 340 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Try before you buy

Rent first, buy later: a week with the S-type answers the big questions. A test week in the S-type tells you more than any review. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

Picking a year and a trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Running costs

The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel.

Make a request

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2005 Jaguar S-type from us first.
