2008 Jaguar X-Type Wagon

2008 Jaguar X-Type Wagon Model Overview

Vehicle Summary: 2008 Jaguar X-Type Wagon

The Jaguar X-Type Wagon (which Jaguar calls a "Sportwagon") has an elegant overall look, an attractive level of standard equipment, and all-wheel drive. However, the compact wagon and the sedan on which it is based have never lived down the fact that they share some of their DNA with more-pedestrian Ford models. Saddled with a poor reputation for reliability and poor sales, the X-Type Wagon is a lame duck that's headed for obscurity at the end of the 2008 model year.
