Potential future owner - need advise
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I'm a potential owner in the market for a used Jaguar S-Type. This will be a daily driver for me. I've never owned a Jaguar, currently own two Mercedes Benz' (C63 AMG and C230Kompressor). I have been searching for an S-Type R and came across this one: Used, Certified Jaguar at BMW of Austin Serving Austin, Round Rock, & Cedar Park, TX
Any advise anyone can provide would be appreciated. General questions: how do these transmissions hold up to high mileage, the same with the supercharger...
Thanks.

Thank you for your warm welcome and direction to do some research. I am completely unfamiliar with Jaguar and Ive always admired the brand. Yes, there is a wealth of information on this forum and I've learned some things in only a day. Grateful.
I have a general question, is the reliability (in general) better or the same for a S-type compared to a STR? (Being that is normally aspirated, non-supercharged? I am considering both, but this will end up as my daily car...anyway, I value opinions and never take things personal...life is just too short. Thanks again.
