What Car? Q&A - Is a new Jaguar S-type on the way?

Q: I’m thinking of buying a Jaguar S-type but I don’t know if there is a new version coming out soon. Are there any plans to replace the car in the near future, which would devalue the current model?

A: Jaguar is tight-lipped about its plans to replace the S-type but it is the next in line for an update. However, it’s likely to be 2007 or 2008 before a new car arrives in showrooms, so residual values in the short term should not take a dive.
