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


erico2k2:
Be realistic for once, the range rover sport gearbox was built by Jaguar, so they both use the same gearbox, same oils, same oil filter, same software, u want me to go on?

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...

Direct this to heavenlybang.
He thinks reading reviews off the internet makes him an authority on cars.
Calling cars trash and all that undecided
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!

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.

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!

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.

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

If it's built on a BMW platform, it can hardly be considered British engineering anymore, no?

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!

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.

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

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.

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
