The Car Behind This Bag
2000 · 3.0L AJ-V6 or 4.0L AJ-V8 · Castle Bromwich, Birmingham · DEW98 chassis · the Ford-era retro Jaguar
The S-Type was Jaguar's first all-new model under Ford ownership and the first deliberate attempt to revive a heritage Jaguar nameplate. The original S-Type had been a 1963-1968 saloon — a bridge between the Mark II and the XJ6 — and Ford and Jaguar's design team chose to revive both the name and a softened version of the late-1960s body language for the new car. Geoff Lawson led the design before his death in 1999. Construction shared the DEW98 platform with the Lincoln LS.
It was the car the late-1990s automotive press loved and the subsequent decade found increasingly difficult to defend. The retro styling aged faster than expected. The interiors were trimmed in Connolly leather and walnut, but with a layout that quietly betrayed its shared platform with American Lincoln engineering. Austin Powers in Goldmember would put one on screen anyway. The supercharged S-Type R variant remains, even now, an undervalued used-car bargain.
Jaguar built 291,386 S-Types from 1999 to 2007 across two facelifts before discontinuing the line in favour of the XF. The original Castle Bromwich interiors — properly British in materials, properly Ford-era in switchgear — represent the precise turning point at which Jaguar's design language began moving away from heritage and toward the cleaner, more contemporary aesthetic that defined the post-2008 cars.
