I've run two Jaguars for the last 2 years, 18mths with a 2.1 V6 X-type and 6 months with an XJ6. Apart from servicing and MOT (no advisories) all I've done is replace the ignition coils in the X-type, because one had water ingress, so I did them all for peace of mind, and I've replaced one faulty parking sensor in the XJ6 (DIY). As Joe says the forum is primarily for troubleshooting so you will hear the less attractive side of Jaguar ownership most of the time, plus the diesels are well known not to be as reliable as the petrol models. It's all about history, condition and more history. Get a good one and they're as reliable as any other brand, especially if previous owners have maintained them properly. All I'd say is if I had a choice between driving my Jag's and suffering the odd niggle, or a Golf, it would be the Big Cat every time.
