Hi folks, New to this forum, Just purchased a X-Type 2.0D and very happy with it so far. One question, is this car galvanized? Don't seem to have any rust on it and it's a 2005 model.

Welcome to the forum,
I'm fairly sure that they are galvanised, good luck with the car.

Raux,

Hello and welcome,

This must be a first - someone worried because their Jaguar doesn't have any rust

Hot dip galvanising is used for inner panels and electrozinc coating for skin panels where cosmetic appearance is important.

Enjoy the car.

Welcome to the forum.

Nice to see you.

Just don't drive in the sea, that would not be good.
