Just to let you guys know I finally baught my Jaguar X-Type 2.0D. Its faster than I thought. It feels so much faster than my mates 2.0 petrol!! Hopefully will put pix up soon

 

baught thought bought thaught ???

I thaught you were taught to spell.... lol

 

Congrat's on your purchase monz87. Hope you enjoy your new ride. I'm jealous that we never had the oil burner option over here in the States.

As jimmy alluded to, it is "bought" in North American dialect anyway, not sure if "baught" is an acceptable spelling in the U.K. or wherever you are. Don't let his Grammar **** post get you down, he's just messing with you. We all have our pet peeves.

Congrats again.

 

No thats perfectly fine, no bother. I will rephrase...

"I have purchased a Jaguar X-Type." *

 

Dont forget the tuning box!!
I bought one and they are great, more power and better mpg when not on the accelerator
Enjoy!

 

Tuning box? Explain please Buck..... A diesel chip?

 

Congrats on your purchase
XF's diesel seems faster over gasoline version as well lol

do they really work as in is it proper noticeable difference?

 

An awful lot of X Type owners on the .co.uk and x-type.org.uk forums are praising different versions of these tunong boxes and I bought one to try and get even better MPG for a trip to France last July as well as the power increases.
Definately work and mine is only set to 5/10
Take off from standstill has the traction light flashing at first while the tyres get grip and acceleration is noticeably better
Time to tweak it up I reckon

 

See the signature, see the signature

 

Dammit! Yet another reason to be pissed we don't have the diesel option in North America!!!

This is gonna put me in an A3 TDI in the next year or so.

 

Just driven its bigger brother a nearly new A5 TDi 30 miles to our bodyshop today for our repair.Nice looking car, nice handling, fairly nippy, but BLAND inside (unless you like all black!)

 

Yeah, that is the downside. I don't know where Audi lost their way with interiors, they used to be so Teutonically perfect. I'm sure I'll miss the interior of the X. I'm sure I could find an aluminum or carbon fiber interior dash kit to spice it up though.

I was thinking XF, but I could use the utility of the hatchback. Plus I just like to tweak on turbo's.

 

i hate it when they don't have diseals, i was so mad i didn't get the 235 ft pounds of torque lol
