Jaguar is set to report record sales you year ending 2001. Up 11% witha total of 100,000. Sales have been boosted by the new X type.

Doesn't sound like a huge number for a car manufaucturer does it.
Sales have also been affected by the tradjic sep11 events and a general down turn in this market makes the 11% a very impressive result

They were predicting the X-type to double there sales weren't they? Or was that over a period of time?

Yeah kinda. It seems to be holding it's own in it's class. 3rd in Oct behind the C-class merc and BMW 3 series sedan. Looks ok for future prospects..

I read a comparison somewhere I can't find it now so maybe I dreamt it, but it didn't do as well as I would have hoped.

I know a guy here that has just purchased an Xtype .I have only spoken to him briefly but he loves it and it looks pretty mint too in a maroon colour. Yes it would be great to hear from a UK owner.

I dont' feel comfortable posting messages on toher boards, but I have email some people with european interests.

I felt that I might post info on all sorts of Euro cars and maybe some one might be reading and want to comment!
