Both are very good car because i Bought Jaguar 2003 year model, because they did over 900 improvements, much stiffer body, including an improved engine, 4.2 vs the older 4.0, and a very fine (German) 6 speed, over the previous 5 speed. Picked it up in Dallas Texas and drove it back to Alaska. Great Grand Touring vehicle! Got typically around 26 mpg at 65-70 mph Had one tank at 29mpg. Very good ride and engine response, very smooth. J gate shifting allows manual operation, but Drive worked great. Like many convertibles, doesn't like bridge expansion joints, but absorbs them better than many. This one came with the optional 19 Apollo rims, so have to take that into consideration (less rubber to absorb bumps and cracks). So far has been very reliable, with 32k on the odometer. This has the optional HID self leveling lights, which work very well.
