hi all, ive just purchased my first jag, a 2.5 v6 sport and have to say although its based on a ford it doesnt feel like it and im loving every moment behind the wheel, wish this wasnt my firstpost-4420-0-96046400-1389287005.jpg

Welcome to the club, Rob.

 

There is not a lot of the Mondeo in your Jaguar.  The platform is Mondeo based and the gearbox is Mondeo.

 

The story goes that the first X type were practically all of the Mondeo Ghia but it didn't sell.  The management asked Ford could they build a Jaguar and the real x type was born. The 2.5L V6 was also in All  Wheel Drive  --  holds the road like it is on rails -- is yours?  Motor manufacturers do use parts from other makes so a bit of Mondeo is nothing derogatory. The S Type has the chassis from a Lincoln and the 2.7 diesel was developed by Ford and Peugeot.

 

You will enjoy your X Type, get an Owners Club Sticker and put a bigger picture on the Website.

 

Regards,

 

Peter.

thankyou peter, and yes it is the 4wd model, i will take some better pics and where do i find the stickers?

Hi Rob,

 

Trevor Catt will probably read this post, and he is the one to contact for the sticker.

 

You will really enjoy your X type, and driven carefully on a long run you can get about 35 mpg.  I had one for 12,000 miles and loved it. It was Radiance Red in showroom condition.  I had just put on two new Pirellis and filled it up with petrol when two scroats carjacked it off my drive.

 

Regards,

 

Peter.
