Jaguar S-Type

Overall Average Rating - 87.88%
Position in the Top 100 cars - 19th

This exec has poor reliability, high running costs and less practicality than a compact family hatch. So how’s it got into the top 20?

Well, it scores excellently for ride, handling and performance and it’s a comfortable and engaging drive. If the XF can right the S-Type’s wrongs, Jaguar would have a world-beater on its hands – look out for the newer model up the chart!

Ratings

Manufacturer Verdict (Position - 4th)

Your reviews of all Jag’s cars put the big cat at the top of the tree for ride quality. This superb engineering not only helped the XF into first place in the Top 100, but gave the firm its high ranking here.
