The 2003 Jaguar X-Type for buyers
No 2003 Jaguar X-Type is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is what to know about the 2003 Jaguar X-Type before buying one.
A buyer's checks
NHTSA has 72 owner complaints on file, mostly about power train, tires and air bags. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
What the specs mean
Its powertrain is the 2.5L 6-cylinder with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
It is rated at 11.8 L/100 km combined, so budget about 35 litres for 300 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $20.65 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,100 a year for 15,000 miles.
Practical details
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. At 453 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who it is for
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Try before you buy
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the X-Type answers more than any brochure. Try the X-Type on your commute, then decide.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$4,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $20.65 in fuel.
Choosing the right one
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. 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.
