| | Test Drive Notes: Jaguar XType 2003 |
 | | While the body of the car is fairly average looking (as opposed to the classic, Jaguar long and low look), the curved hood, dual round headlights, and Jaguar hood emblem do say "Jaguar." The cues are subtle otherwise, and from certain angles, you might mistake it for a run-of-the-mill Ford sedan. |
 | | Jaguar has made some minor tweaks to the design, including changes to the tuning, manifolds, and cylinder heads. |
 | | When a luxury brand like a Jaguar decides to put out a lower priced, "entry level" car, the trick is to figure out what makes a car a Jaguar, and then make sure that the entry-level car at least has the most important of those qualities (car geeks call it the "brand DNA"). |
