Used Jaguar S-Type cars for sale

Used Jaguar S-Type
The Jaguar S-Type was released in 1999 and two engines were made available, a 3.0-litre V6 capable of generating 240 bhp and a 4.0-litre V8 developing 281 bhp. Early 2004 saw the entire range given a facelift, and later that year, the 2.7-litre diesel model appeared. The diesel model was so successful that Jaguar stopped making the 2.5-litre V6 altogether. In 2007, the standard Jaguar S-Type received the sportier grille and bumper from the S-Type R. Production of the Jaguar S-Type ended in 2008 when it was replaced by the Jaguar XF.

What You Get
An approved used Jaguar S-Type is packed full of features. The 4.0 litre comes with a power sunroof, leather upholstery, cruise control, steering wheel stereo controls and front fog lamps. Even the entry-level V6 comes with a load of features as standard, such as electric seats, alloy wheels, climate-controlled air conditioning, traction control, ABS, a trip computer, a sophisticated security system and twin front and side airbags. Many other features were offered as options, such as the CATS suspension system and satellite navigation.

How it Drives
A used Jaguar S-Type gives one of the best rides in its class. The models that have had the optional 17-inch wheels added are a little bumpier than those with the standard wheels. The steering is a little too assisted on V6 models but better in V8s. Both engines are impressive and can produce some very decent performance figures. The V8 has a noticeable rush of power which the V6 doesn't, but both engines lack any decent noise to go with their stats. All in all, though, the S-Type combines class, luxury, power and style very well.
