Expensive To Own, But Very Very Worth It If You Can Afford It. — Performance - Fast acceleration. Too heavy to spin the tires. Top speed of 140, not bad for an inline 6. Handling could be better, but it is sporty. Build Quality - Good everywhere except the wiring, British cars are notorious for faulty wiring and Jaguar felt the need for separate fuses for both sides. Typical repairs for a 20+ y/o car. Appearance - Beautiful car, commands attention on the road. Somewhat of a muscle car stance. Interior was well done, but lacks cupholders (not a single one in the whole car!!!) Cost Of Ownership - Only takes premium gas, when I say only, I MEAN only. tried 91 and she spits a sputters, had to put octane booster to rid of the faulty gas. Repairs are few and far between, but expensive when you get them. Fun Factor - Hellishly fun to drive, stock its nearly impossible to spin the tires, which could be good or bad depending on how you look at it. Handling is typical for a big car, but nice and sporty. Engine has a nice roar to it and revving high while parked will shift the car back and forth nicely xD Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

ProsHandles nicely and has a plush ride, Inline 6 is a great motor ConsWIRING!!! every reliability issue I had stemmed from wiring problems

If You Hate The Look Of A Cadillac And The Thought Of Reliability, This Car Is For You — My Jaguar was a great driving car, it looked awesome and drove awesome... when It would start. It wasn't very reliable, and that means a lot coming from someone that has owned more than one British car. The interior felt cheap, and the wiring was just plain stupidly engineered. Mileage was only mediocre for an inline 6 and it was geared so high that acceleration was hardly an option. Also the fluid for the Hydraulic ride control was super expensive!

A Car For All Occassions.. — Very Fast if you don't mind kickin it.Smoked a 2008 Bentley left it like it was standing still. He opened it up We laughed said ok bud here we go, and within two blocks I cleaned his A** damnn Bentley sounded like a Mortified Lawnmower.. On a bad note not enough road to open the car full. 232 mph before I ran outta straight road, had to back down..The car is a Dream to drive though.Cruisin,long runs,weddings, funerals,car shows..If you can maintain it it's well worth it.

I Would Like To Get A Newer Version, Afterall, A Jag Is A Jag — was good for its time with the pullout tablesin the back seats to entertain drinking buddies in the back, right down to the uk mobster look for the designgood handling, when the bearings and brakes go, be prepared to dish out cash, body rots suprisingly quick, love the seats, not good on fuel but if you want that, remember, it Aint a smart car, a blast from the past, sweet to drive though Primary Use: Commuting to work |

1 Of The Worlds Best Cars — Pro`s easily outweigh the cons, buy a good one & you`ll fall in love, buy a bad one & watch your bank ballance plummet. Economy is the biggest issue, expect 14mpg in town, 25mph cruising on the motorway... |

ProsIt is my show car and attracts a lot of attention as I have won 4 trophies with it. Was love at first sight! Wonderful exterior color and beautiful interior, exclusivity of this particular model Consnot great mpg, somewhat expensive to repair

Never Get Tired Looking At It Or Showing It. — Jaguar outdid themselves with this car, producing only 527 VANDEN PLAS MAJESTICS, and only for the US market in 1990. The classic style, outstanding Regency Red Metallic finish and impressive Magnolia Leather and Burled Walnut interior make it a very impressive show car. |

Flawed But Beautiful — Another Pininfarina design, and in my opinion one of the most beautiful sedans ever built. Exceptional appearance, and ride quality, and classic British interior. However, awful quality and this car cost me more money and spent more time in the shop than any other car I ever owned. Eventually had to cut my losses and sell it to avoid a divorce.

I Wish They Had Cash For Clunkers When I Owned This Lemon! — What they say about Jaguar cars is true.. You DO need two of them.. One to drive whilkst the other one is in the shop being fixed.. I had an XJ 6 series 3 .. and it blew up the motor twice before we allowed someone else to enjoy her.. and In my stupidity I ( some years later) bough an XJ SAries 3 V 12. Youd thin k a man would learn>>?? Nope.. another Dud.. Never again!~ Primary Use: Family transportation |
