Buying the 2002 Jaguar S-type
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2002 Jaguar S-type for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans.

Before you sign for the S-type
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 24 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, vehicle speed control and electrical system; have those parts checked.
Specs, explained
The 3.0L 6-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. 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.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 39 litres, from its 13.1 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $22.93, and a 300 km weekend about $68.79. The EPA estimates US$4,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Practical details
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. In plain terms, its 340 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Who rents the S-type
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the S-type for a week and see how it fits your life. A test week in the S-type tells you more than any review. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Money matters
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Year and trim
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
