Jaguar S-Type
Edit

The Jaguar S-Type was an executive car that debuted at the 1998 Birmingham Motor Show and was marketed by Jaguar for model years 1999-2008, reviving the nameplate of the company's 1963-68 S-Type as a four-door notchback saloon. The S-Type received a mild facelift for model year 2005. The 2002 S-Type 4.2 Supercharged V8 at the time, was the fastest road production saloon car in the world. The S-Type was discontinued in late 2007 and replaced by the XF.

  10. "Top Gear". 4. Series 4. Episode 6. 13 June 2004. BBC. BBC Two. So in about... 15 or 20 years time we'll look at the S-Type, and we'll think 'That's really awful'... We will... I think the S-type is basically like Beaujolais nouveau — awful when it came out and then just gets steadily worse as time passes. That's a shame... Now you've brought the S-Type up, time to move on...
  11. "Top Gear". 3. Series 3. Episode 9. 28 December 2003. BBC. BBC Two. Oh, I didn't like any of that car actually... no, it was Jaguar's weakest hour, who agrees with me, that was the weakest Jaguar ever... Yes absolutely, they should just drop it from a great height and be done with it...
  12. "Top Gear". 10. Series 10. Episode 10. 23 December 2007. 1 minutes in. BBC. BBC Two. Retrieved 16 August 2017. It sums up everything that's wrong with Jaguar... what they did with the S-Type was to make a car that they hoped would appeal to Germans and Americans... Mr. Jonathan Foreigner has this ridiculously outdated view of what Britain is... It's rubbish! And Jaguar absolutely pandered to this view with the S-Type. Just look at that retro grille — it's goppingly awful. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b008m4dy
  13. "Top Gear". 4. Series 4. Episode 5. 6 June 2004. 7 minutes in. BBC. BBC Two. Petrol has passed the £1/liter mark..., but it's a good time for Jaguar to launch the new S-Type diesel... It is a very good time, but I'm not sure, no matter how good the engine is, that I'd go for that one. Yeah you see we're missing something aren't we, let's be absolutely honest, it is, as Jeremy's demonstrating (Clarkson impersonates the S-Type radiator grille with his mouth), hideous! It does look exactly like that, it is hideous! I think it looks like a dead cod, it does look like something washed up on a beach. Can anybody think of a car, currently available that's uglier than an S-Type Jag?... Honestly, I really do believe that is the ugliest car that money can buy, great new engine, we don't care.
