Well I was looking for a cheap reliable used car that got great milage... and I ended up with a 2004 X-Type 3.0 Jaguar. What can I say, I fell in love with it!

Glad to be a part of a a community of Jag owners.
I fixed my vanity mirrors last night and posed the fix on the site.

Now I need to figure out why my milage is so bad (19 mpg avg with 70% hwy), but I'm certainly enjoying my "new" car!

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.
That mileage doesn't sound too healthy!

You should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

Welcome to the forum.

Good to see you.

If you only drive half way there and then park and walk the rest of the way you will double your mileage figure.

We go in for simple solutions around here.

Welcome daveyjones,

looking for a cheap reliable used car that got great mileage - two out of three's not bad.

Enjoy the X-Type.

Graham
