2008 Jaguar X-Type Sedan

2008 Jaguar X-Type Sedan Model Overview

Vehicle Summary: 2008 Jaguar X-Type Sedan

Saddled with a poor reputation for reliability and poor sales, the X-Type is a lame duck that's headed for obscurity at the end of the 2008 model year. The Jaguar X-Type has an elegant overall look, an attractive level of standard equipment, and all-wheel drive. However, the compact sedan never has lived down the fact that it shares some of its DNA with more pedestrian Ford models.
