I'm pretty certain this particular jaguar shares more parts with a ford than a range rover. erico2k2: |

The Stype R is a gem. I was crazy about one in 2018...2006 MY with the 4.2l supercharged, 400hp. That thing sounds awesome, one of the most beautiful cars in my opinion. I think the best way to love that car is have a seat behind the wheel, close the door(whilst appreciating the chunkiness and the suction-like sound when closed), turn on the engine and listen to the exhaust sound, the muffled V8 exhaust rumble- this I think betters what ever reviews you might have online. Drive it and as you chug down the road, something must remind you that you are in a different class of vehicle. The Stype R is a car I wish to own, the XJs are beautiful too... |

yungboss:Direct this to heavenlybang. He thinks reading reviews off the internet makes him an authority on cars. Calling cars trash and all that ![]() If you don't like it or don't appreciate it enough,leave it for the people that do. Nigerians don't buy jaguars because they like to think in packs,like hyenas,not that there car is "thrash". Jeez! |

Theconglomerate:Bros, how many Jags have you seen on the road. Now how many Jags have you seen abandoned? Think carefully and get back to me. I don't quite think they're bad cars, don't get me wrong. They supposedly drive excellently, and the ones I've been in have had pretty solid interiors for their time, and great ride quality. But all of that doesn't matter if at the end of the day, your car leaves you stuck somewhere--or carrying out a simple fix requires considerably more work than a similar car. No sane man will tell you that British cars aren't good drivers car, but British engineering is even worse than German engineering, and those cars are filled with complicated mechanical and electrical designs. Una dey shout Nissan Nissan for here, but I go dey laugh. There are much worse cars in terms of dumb electromechanical designs. Read not for reading sake, but to comprehend. |

Niseed:I will ask you to name what parts ![]() |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by erico2k2(m): 8:29pm On May 12, 2020 |
Kingsdave:U see the gear knob? that's where the Autobiography and the Evougue got thiers from Jag system when the became JLR |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by erico2k2(m): 8:32pm On May 12, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang:you are naming British cars as bad Engineering, you seem to forget the Rolls Roys, Austin martins and the Bentleys of this world are all British Engineering! |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by HeavenlyBang(m): 8:44pm On May 12, 2020 |
erico2k2:Except that Bentley is now VAG, and Rolls-Royce is now BMW. Apart from the Mulsanne and Phantom which are on bespoke platforms, I believe other cars from those companies use modified existing VAG and BMW platforms. Also, you can't compare a Rolls-Royce to a regular car. No one is putting 100k miles on a Rolls-Royce. No one is taking a Rolls-Royce to a random mechanic. Even then Astons are hardly the beacons of reliability, even compared to other exotic cars. |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by erico2k2(m): 9:28pm On May 12, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang:The company was sold does not mean the Engineering changed, They are still British Inventions! just like Electricity. You seem to forget, the British made more brand of cars more than anyone else |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by HeavenlyBang(m): 9:36pm On May 12, 2020 |
erico2k2:If it's built on a BMW platform, it can hardly be considered British engineering anymore, no? |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by erico2k2(m): 9:39pm On May 12, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang:None is built on any car's platform, from the Rolls Roys to Bently to Austin martin or Ford or Vauxhall or jaguar, the list goes on! |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by HeavenlyBang(m): 9:50pm On May 12, 2020 |
erico2k2:The Wraith is built on the 7-series platform. The Bentley Bentayga is built on the Audi Q8's platform. The Bentley Continental GT is built on the Porsche Panamera's platform. These cars are German now, sir. McLaren is the only company I'd say is completely British at the moment. Even Aston has a very close relationship with Mercedes. |

HeavenlyBang:Okay ...let's assume that you don't want to answer...okay which car isn't a junk? Maybe we can have the one you produced ..all we ask is for a name ! Because to you most cars are junk...we want to drink from your fountain of knowledge sir |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by HeavenlyBang(m): 10:34am On May 13, 2020 |
AmuDimpka:Your own is junk. Mine isn't. Satisfied? |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by kingreign(m): 10:39am On May 13, 2020 |
AmuDimpka: AmuDimpka:You need to take away all these emotions and apply logic to things before writing them down or saying it. Learn to research properly also, it will help you. And o yes, even the Brits and Americans knows modern day Jaguar Land Rovers are very unreliable and terrible brands. Those who buy them do so for brand loyalty or just to belong to a 'clique'. Is Land Rover and Jaguar unreliable and terrible? HELL FÜÇKIÑG YES! would Kingreign love to own a couple of them despite their terrible nature? UNAPOLOGETIC YES |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by AmuDimpka: 10:40am On May 13, 2020 |
kingreign:I can't remember having a conversation with you ...it seems you folks are clique you know ...just like one for all and all for one .. I never asked you question...did I ? |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by AmuDimpka: 10:42am On May 13, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang:LoL.... Says someone that said that Jaguar cars are junk ! Aston Martin cars are junk , says one who said that Rolls Royce are junk All those amazing British cars are junk... And you want us to really take you serious ? Who does that ? |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by kingreign(m): 10:42am On May 13, 2020 |
AmuDimpka:The last time I checked, this is a public forum, if you don't need my input, stay away or deal with it and sulk it up. C'mon! |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by AmuDimpka: 10:43am On May 13, 2020 |
erico2k2:abeg help me ask am if he has ever owned a Rolls Royce or Aston Martin |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by HeavenlyBang(m): 10:49am On May 13, 2020 |
kingreign:You get time. In my very first post on this thread, I admitted that I'd absolutely love to own a Jaguar. But that man up there lacks all cognizance of the concept of nuance. |
| Re: Facts About Jaguar Car by Niseed(m): 11:41am On May 13, 2020 |
erico2k2:Whenever you try and claim to be an authority on certain topics, it's best to also do some research. I always thought it was common knowledge that the jaguar S Type shared parts with ford, guess I was wrong. It's never too late to learn ....so here you go https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s-type-s-type-r-supercharged-v8-x200-15/confirmed-crossed-referenced-ford-parts-work-our-jaguars-faq-37066/ |
