2005 | 4dr Sedan 227-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
it is very comfortable during short trips or long drives. The seat can be adjusted many ways as well as the wheel. The controls are all in reach and easy to use. The dash is not too high nor to low. The car is very easy to see out of while driving. see full Jaguar X-Type review |

Well I am a taller person so when i have the drivers seat in my driving position there is virtually no room behind me so that makes the rear seat worthless for just about any person. see full Jaguar X-Type review |

2007 | 2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6 6-speed manual RWD |
Adjustable thigh bolster and seat back bolsters offer great support and the Nappa leather is grippy to prevent sliding around. see full BMW Z4 review |

I find the front seat, even heated, to have great lumbar support, my sciatica does not bother me even when I have to use the clutch. Those with long legs are amazed at all the leg room available. see full BMW Z4 review |

I would not recommend the car for EXTREMELY long road trips or the like. Comfort wise, if you used to something that is very plush or soft the car will feel too hard on badly paved roads. see full BMW Z4 review |
