2003 S-Type 4.2 base.
Just bought it with 110k on it. Have only put about 120 miles on it getting it home and a couple short drives around town.

 

I have a 2003 STR.... Best car I have ever owned and I have had some good ones. I have 132K with very few problems. Had my mechanic give it a close look a couple of weeks ago and he was surprised at how good of shape it was in. I do need the DCCV replaced and probably the ECM. Missing the A/C for the most part. I had a transmission drain at 120K as it was acting up a bit. No problems since then.


Love my car and plan to stay with Jag in the future.

 

2003 STR 13,000 miles, original owner.

 

13K - is that all? Ouch. I'm over 113K.

It's not good for a car to drive so little, drive it more!

 

Your right I need to drive it more, but it's garaged and the weather here never freezes or gets humid and it's never been driven in the rain. I keep the oil changed regularly. I do need to change the coolant and transmission fluid though, they look new, but they are still 12 years old.

 

04 STR @ 35225 had since new.

 

6 years 3rd owner(?) 278,000K. Some rust; some headaches; some bills....

 

Have 59,000 on my 2003 S-Type 4.2, purchased new. Had a fuel pump replaced when under warranty. Also replaced the climate control variable speed fan and rear shocks (left rear leaked). Engine, transmission and other electronics have been perfect. Love the car.

 

2003 STR has 149,000 miles and still runs great. Need to fix A/C though.

 

Wow, I thought I may be the lowest but you had 4 more years and only 1500 more miles. I'm at 11400 on my 97 4.2 and counting so should pass you in a couple months.

 

63,000 2003 S-type- V8 owned since new

 

Now approaching 95,000 miles. With my current driving requirements now spread across my S-Type, my Ram, and our Outback, my S-Type is averaging only about 5,000 miles per year....

 

Just crossed 112k miles today. Had the car over seven years now, and still having difficulty finding a suitable replacement. The Infiniti FX50S I just got comes close, but still miles apart from the Jag's abilities.

 

Prior: Radiance 2005 STR bought in 2009 with 39,200 miles and sold in 2011 with 117k I was the second owner.

Current (just bought a week ago): Silver 2005 STR bought with 37,844, currently at 38,424 =) also second owner on this one.

Just purchased a 2000 S-type V8 with 53.4K miles.

Driving home I felt it missing and after about 80miles, check engine
light turned on. Made it to one of my favorite restaurants and plugged in the scanner. Misfire cylinder #8. Ate some beef ribs and drove 50 more miles to my home. Let her cool down. Swapped coils #7 with #8 and still missing. I'm a fan of rockauto.com but don't have the time to wait and purchased eight NGK Iridium IX. Inspected the spark plugs (NGK Iridium R) and they had some rust build up between the ceramic piece and metal. Installed the new set and she purrs like a kitten! I've loved the modern S-type ever since '99.

My wife decided last fall she's done with SUV's (plus I have a van) so we sold our '03 Aviator with 180k and found an '04 S-type 3.0L with 91k.
Had a trans leak which required an immediate fluid/pan replacement and haven't had any issues since.

It now has just short of 99k.
We've really enjoyed it so far. It has some dings on the corners from previous owners, but I just hand washed it over the weekend and really stands out. Doors and panels are nearly flawless.

142,000 on my 2000 S Type

I've got 66,000 miles on mine now and it's doing good. Today I ran into someone, not literally, who has a 2003 S Type base 4.2 model and he told me it has well over 200,000 miles with no leaks and no real problems. It looks good too. He told me that mine should be good for another ten years, I hope so.
