You can listen to the salesperson at any number of Jaguar dealers explain in detail all of the features and advantages to owning a Jaguar. However, to get the full understanding of what those features feel like, you will have to speak to an owner of a Jaguar for the inside story. A person who has had the driving experience beyond the test drive can describe what it is like to drive, on a daily basis, a beautiful, comfortable, and refined automobile. Many will tell you that driving the Jaguar up and down the coast, to work, or for a Sunday drive was not hard sell. They never relegate their enjoyable driving experience to just special occasions.
The only exception to driving the Jaguar regularly is if your commute to work is less than desirable. You might want to drive a less expensive car during those trips. The abuse the car would have to sustain will only lead you to visit Jaguar dealers again to purchase a new one. Jaguar owners will advise that if you plan to buy a used Jaguar, make sure you purchase one that has a complete service history. When the previous owner took care of the car with regular service and addressed issues as soon as signs were noticed, the fewer troubles you will have. If you are a handyman with tools, or know someone who is, servicing the car yourself is less expensive than going to a shop. However, parts might not be readily available at a local parts chain. So, if you want to own a Jaguar, be ready to pay the price to keep it in good condition.
Regardless to which service route you take, the point is that if you want a cheap car, going to Jaguar dealers is not a good idea. Buying a Jaguar is not the equivalent to buying into a money pit; however, if you choose to neglect it, you will have to pay even more to get it back into shape properly. Current Jaguar owners will debunk the myths that these cars are notoriously unreliable. The bottom line: if you want to know what it is like, and you have the finances, nothing is like experiencing such a powerful vehicle for yourself.
