Jaguar X Type 2004 Problems
No car is perfect, but we've gathered everything relating to the Jaguar X Type 2004 reliability here to help you decide if it's a smart buy.
Is a Volvo C70 or Jaguar X-Type a good first budget car in Australia?
I wouldn’t recommend either of them as a budget buy, unless you have deep pockets. They are both too old. While they might not be very exciting, a car from one of the big Asian brands, such as Mazda or Toyota, would be a much better choice for someone with a limited budget.
2004 Jaguar X Type rust on suspension and control arms
If it's surface rust it should be acceptable to clean it off and apply a protective coating, and that's what I suspect it is. If it were structural rust that's a different matter, but it's unusual for suspension components to be affected this way. It would seem on the surface that the mechanic is being over zealous. Find an engineer acceptable to Queensland Transport to assess the rust for you and go from there.
