Oh my, he skies behind a car on the road. But its okay, because he's got a Jaaaag.
😀😜😀😜😀😜😀😜😀😜
Laughs in 2021
Anything is possible, as long as you have a Jaaaaaaaag.
Im glad bringing you back here with my thumb up in these sad times of 2022. But still, its really okay and you know why - Its because he's got a Jaaaaaaag.
@@scriptpavianys6522 That's you can get over anything with a Jaaaaaaag.
Clarkson understood who the X Type was marketed at so he never slagged it off because it did the job of being an entry level Jaguar perfect.
Unfortunately there were a lot of morons in the press who were expecting the X Type to be a £20k Jaguar XJ. Fools
They did everything for X-type not to be even a £20k S-type, but in fact she turned out to give way also to C-class and 3-series.
i agree, and its really easy to work on, id say its the perfect step to getting into jaguar as an american, if you want to start with a "real" jag. get an s type
@@LowEndPCGamer100 facts... when i was looking to buy an stype or xtype i was looking at various... unfortunatly i couldnt find one with a manual transmission where i live... so i opted with a 2.0d cuz i couldnt also find a decent 2.2d... i thought of a 2.5 or a 3.0 but petrol here is 7 bucks a gallon... bit pricey... but ye... its been an amazing car so far... reliability is so good... only had a major problem on the dealer... but it was before it was sold and they showed the receipts... had a fuel pump put on, injectors, sensors, egr valve... then in warranty needed a camshaft sensor... and after that a crankshaft pulley for the serpentine belt... nothing crazy... its smooth, has the power when you put your foot down... all i do is yearly maintenence... filters and oil changes... Its one of the best cars ive had so far. And everything still works too... the eletric adjustable seats, the AC, the defrost front and rear windows, the eletric door mirrors... there one or two rattles but nothing that will annoy you... Compared to an audi or a bmw... Its way better and more comfortable.

Unmistakably Clarkson. St. Jezza of Chipping Norton.
Being from Minnesota I absolutely giggled watching this, you’ll see a shitty 99 Buick Regal doing 80 in an absolute white out blizzard in the highway
It’s that time of year boys
Here in Missouri, you’ll see some dumbass in a 2WD Chevy S10 doing 60 on a completely snow covered rural highway lmao
@@rowanarcticfox And then, there’s North Carolina, where we all panic like the end is upon us because of 1 inch of snow.
meanwhile in new hampshire, in 1 foot of snow with about 6 on the road with a built up cummins turbo diesel going 100+, i have seen it but only once
Or a honda fit doing 50 on the river road in the city
I don't even know why being based on a Mondeo is considered a bad thing
If anything, that's reassuring, and the Ford engines have been working for Jaguar nicely, even in the XF diesel
My Contour, the American branded Mondeo, is a few months older than me and works fine.
I'm surprised the X-Type didn't do better - it was aimed at the upper end (but obvs not the top end) of the company car market - and while there was strong competition from Audi A3s, Series 3 Beemers, and the C Class Merc - the X-Type was a good bit cheaper and was based on a platform that fleet managers had absolute trust in for years.
Putting Jaguar styling and trim on a tried and tested bombproof Ford undercarriage seems like an absolute no-brainer to me.
@@5ynthesizerpatel yes, but apparently all the jaguar purists we're screaming ma exclusivity been ruined. It's like the Jeep Patriot of Jags.
@@5ynthesizerpatelI think the Rover 75 wounded the X-Type somewhat. Same segment of the market, doing the same retro-British luxury car gimmick.
However BMW and Rover did a much better job than Ford and Jaguar did. Hell the 75 is more frequently compared to the more expensive S-Type over it's actual rival. That says a lot.
It was it's own unique platform, not reworking something else in the range like Ford did.
The X-Type will forever (unfairly) be painted as the Mondeo Vanden Plas even though it's fairly far detached from the Mondeo.
@@lazzie7495 I don't disagree that counted against the X for the civilian market.
But company car fleet managers and buyers ( which was the market which the X Type was aimed at) - tend to be pretty pragmatic and less prone to emotional purchases.
My girlfriend drives a Patriot BTW - I quite like it, provided I don't pretend it's a Jeep 🤣

This Jaguar lasted 15 years on the road, did fail MOT's in January and May 2018 however. Untaxed and no MOT since May/June 2019.
Source: DVLA and one of those MOT checking websites.
I've always liked this car. I don't understand why it didn't have success in sales. It's a very rare car.

I have a 2003 sedan in the Jaguar green love it ❤️

The crazy part is that he’s not that far from the truth lol
I'm Swedish and experience winters with lots of snow from time to time. Sometime you had time to make preparations, sometimes not. BUT IMO the only stuff you'll need is a shovel, a blanket (just in case) an elastic tow line, winter tires and *maybe* two small carpets. You can easily fit it in a storage box in the boot of the car. And If you don't live like 50 km into the woods where it snows almost 1 meter per day (looking at you, Canada and Alaska) you don't need more. Just winter tires alone makes all the difference when driving on snow and icy roads. FWD or RWD manages just fine as long as there is winter tires on the car. Both FWD and RWD is scary as hell to drive when it's slushy snow with summer tires.
"But we only get snow 3 days a year." Very possible, but the snow itself isn't the "real" danger, it's the ice.
We had this generation of X-type with the 2.0 l diesel, estate as well, and it was of course fwd. We live in sweden. And one year the snow was particularly deep, wich happens every 4-5 years. My dad who commutes 1 hour to work, on pretty country ass roads to save time, said it worked super good, especially with the pretty good gear range of the Manual transmission.
JC got positive camber on those skies hahahaha....
Jeremy Boaz Tampubolon That sir is not camber, that's toe
Jason W. Morningwood thank you sir, although I still don't understand, pardon me sir
Jason W. Morningwood Marvelous, I Have emerged wiser ! thx morningwood ! lolol
U mean negative....... *facepalm*
im sorry
Even in this silly estate edition, the X type still looks like a gorgeous car.
Estate looks better in my opinion...
Yes, there are always too many silly reasonably priced four wheel drive manual sporty estates on the market. We' need more gorgeous cars that are designed to look like a practical off road sports coupe based on hatchback but with chopped rear headroom and a raised center of gravity and 18 inch wheels to loo like a hypercar offering decreased practiality, increased price, poor accident avoidance capability and ride. Estates are silly, who needs a vehicle that can actually be practical, technically capable and efficient in one package if you can legitimately sell more niche vehicles that create almost 50 percent or just about 10 tons more co2 under production than an old conventional vehicle and label it as a zero emission vehicle because upmarket world saving overpriced child slave labor cobalt and nickel mining product is just what a millennial needs, another cliche
estate better looking and more practical than saloon
"j'arrive at the top"
too funny lol
The Jaguar X Type, demonstrating that the power of a British badge can overcome the laws of physics themselves! Oh Top Gear...
BYSMA4th what Physik-law actually says, That you can't drive on roads, whit 5cm of snow on them?
You could Do that in a rear wheel drive 911
Well Not exactly that because you will struggle to Put anything from that List into the Boot of a 911, and if you try to mount a rope on the back, a german will appear and kill you, because you might scratch the paint of a Porsche, and a 911 wouldnt drive on top of the snow, but rather loob all the snow under its tires away, producing lots of noises, whilst going 20mph and burnig enoug fuel to kill 20 polar bears.
@@sinthoras1306 You would put the luggage in the FRONT, you DRIVELING ASS, as Jeremy would properly say *insert smug face*
Jaguar is OWNED by Ford, and as he said, underneath it's pretty much a Mondeo with 4 wheel drive. So American company with a British HISTORY.
@@OffGridInvestor was, like 11 years ago.
@@OffGridInvestor it's a british company that was american owned.
There's a difference between winter tyres & studded tyres. My winter tyres look pretty much like the normal ones except that they have chunkier tread and are made of a softer compound. Studded tyres only tend to be used in places like Norway, where they can have permanent snow over the winter months.
3:58 "... big off roaders with their chunky tires" while showing a Subaru Forester which is pretty much an Impreza wagon with a bit of lift
Used x types are wonderful winter beaters! Put some snow tires on it, and you can drive through anything! And just like a Ford, you can drive it with tons of issues just fine haha
We have evolved to "STAY ALERT!"
Im from california, ive never heard if this word "winter" before
Of*
iv hear some of u guys dont no what snow looks like. here in Staten island ny we get slammed
it last wayyyyyy longer then an earth quake
Come to wisconsin
I'm in NJ. bring on the snow! I'd live to see California
I just love the fact that Jeremy likes to blow everything out of proportion!
You've made your point after the fourth item mate!
I love how we're like, 1cm of snow, LOOT THE SHOPS, GET TONS OF GEAR, NO DRIVING!!! When finland has like meters of snow and they just carry on normal lives.. :S
-england
dude thats what he was trying to prove
The point of this car is that you can cover roads that are less than perfect quicker and safer, its relaxing
I have owned a 2.5 and 3.0 both 4x4
Coming out of tunnels in europe at 90mph where you go from dry to wet, these things are amazing
Looking forward to the snow coming so i can drive up the local mountain, only 4x4s can make it up, 2wd has zero chance
oh man, the Salomon Scream ….i remember just how rad those skis were back in 2000 haha this show rules again
LOL!!! One of the funniest episodes!!! Wish you all come back with the same cast (Jeremy, Hammond, and the other guy), writers, producers, and behind the scenes people!
2wd works just fine in those conditions, just have a good set of winter tires, which you need anyways because you'll eventually need to stop.
I'm Canadian and that winter is nothing.
Josh Nason You are not special, most people expierience a normal winter
Josh Nason Same here in sweden
Josh Nason That's like literally what Jeremy was saying the whole video...
They get scared over 3 inches of snow? We got like 10 feet here in New England this past winter, and thanks to our powerful North American equipment we can move it just fine. It may have been -11 (that's Fahrenheit for all those who don't use the correct system) but the powered was flying.
And I still don't know why a flashlight is called a torch.
+burdizdawurd1516 In ye old days they used a torch... a flashlight replaced that cause of convinience? (mind the spelling)... When usa came to be it was not so long ago so u think of flashlight (like a flash of light).
"I need abit more gravity" HAHAHAHAHA
You alive?
There's nothing like an AWD independent wheel traction control system. I've driven my sister's 2000 Mercedes E320 4MATIC through a snow storm in the Sierra Nevada Mts. When everyone was crawling at 20 mph, I was cruising at 40-50 mph like I was on dry pavement. =)
Winter tires are far more important than any other factor for winter driving.
subaru symmetrical awd is better
Why does Jeremy look 30 feet tall?
+ethan Klahn Because only idiots use imperial units.
+ProHockeyPlayer87 We use Imperial in the UK.
+ethan Klahn because all of the plants around him are surprisingly small
+Samuel Brooks the UK officially uses the metric system but it's not fully adopted by the people so certain things people will use metric and others imperial like a persons height people still use feet. since 2009 food and goods are meant to be measured in the metric system but things like speed and travel distance are still being used in imperial basically the uk cant make it mind up haha
+nachospole1 Uk has already made its mind up. At universities, schools, industry, the government, military...etc...etc use SI units. Just because some people still use Stone to measure weight, it doesn't mean UK hasn't made its mind up.
Even in the US, the universities and the entire scientific community use SI units, because that is the only way to do science.
Got a 4 wheel drive x type just over a year ago.., i bought it pretty much because of this clip... drove it up mount etna several times covering 10km of snow. and steep.. epic fun..
getting a 3.0 x type end of the month.... cannot wait.. car does everything
how is / was the reliability, durability, dealership ?[ and the cost of maintenance?]
@@polomarco7053 Catastrophic car, had it for a few years. 2.5 v6 petrol fuel consumption pretty much same as a ferrari, slow and not particularly comfortable car. Good in snow though but much better choices if looking for used.
Worst car I ever had
@@polomarco7053 I freaking love my X-Type estates.
I use plural as a garage didn't put coolant in and I had to get a new one.
The diesel ones range is phenominal if you don't accelerate like a delinquent. Less stress on the car too.
A comfortable car that has masses of storage space, great for car seats, can handle snow and loose surfaces with it's balance and is easy to get in and out.
As for maintainence there are many parts in common with a mondeo so they are cheaper than Jaguar OEM parts keeping the costs down and they are a solid car. Reliability is good as well. Outstanding for an old car.

Oh, I don’t know. Had a BMW 325i wagon (2011) that I drove through hundreds of miles of snow(storm), SF to Seattle and Las Vegas to SLC, rear wheel drive, no chains, not a problem. Keep your speed up, but not too fast. (Truck driver’s rule: Stay between the ditches with the rubber side DOWN!). ;-)
i think biritsh can`t really handle the winter that good, but i kinda understand that becouse they dont really have winter that much ... u see here in finland ( allso scandinavian and other countrys in north ) have get used to it becouse its about half of the year
and btw i heard more accidents happen in summer than while winter :D

Take your greetings somewhere else. We can handle the winter perfectly fine. We just don’t want to XD
That's cute.

02:30 Is Jeremy preparing for emergency situation in snowy roads or is he just preparing for a roadtrip to swiss?
Isnt the garage in the back from 2:25 , the garage where they mended the projects in the last top gear episode from season 22?
The estate 3 litre, in black, is absolutely the used car bargain of all time.. Believe me!
I wish the Mondeo estate had been available in the USA as the Contour wagon. The X type Sportwagon was the closest available vehicle.
I drove one of these about 10 years ago and absolutely loved it. It did not feel like a Ford.
Just bought an X-Type for £600, can't believe how good the car is!
Please give an update
@@lasagna5934 hi mate, still driving it! Best money I've ever spent
@@nickgeorgiou123 Which one do you have? Engine and Drivetrain wise.
@@metalheadgamer6666 hi mate, just the standard front wheel drive with the 2.0td engine, but it just feels fantastic with that setup
Meanwhile in New York: welp time to get the Jeep ready.
Meanwhile in Australia: “Wait there are other cars than 4x4’s?”
just gonna say, winters where i live get really rough near the end of the season, and my x type has saved my ass on multiple occasions on the ice. i expect the same of it that i would a subaru or s type, just with a little less power, great car, and really cheap on the blue book, great tuner too.
Jeremy - the Stig on Skis! :D
I spent my whole life in tropical country and 5°C is enough to make me feel my bone.. can't really imagine how I survive in winter
0:57 this guy in the Fiat Panda 4x4 will never have problems in the snow
Fast forward to 2021 and the news is still at it 😂
As a British Canadian, who drives a front wheel drive car in rough conditions all you really need is a good set of winter tires on, that in mind, that jag is sick
Since when was driving a 2WD FWD car an issue in snow? I'm been doing it since I first had my license...
And we are climbing mountains with those in here... Never been stuck, but i have pulled out a few idiots over the last months.
Well, surely much better than RWDs.. since you get traction from the weight of the engine pushing the wheels down
Depends... mostly on what tyres you are driving...
It's more about highway instability, I live really far from my home because of school and my mom's FWD car actually had exactly that heart stopping moment Clarkson talks about in the video. It's actually scary, and it's just because of how FWD works (all the power in the front without traction, and the back wheels just dragging uselessly). Luckily mine is a 4wd. Actually the saloon version of this car xD
people in this country don't get snow, if we get threats of even a small flurry people assume the world is going to end and they empty shop shelves. Plus people don't know how to drive, if I'm coming up a hill with parked cars, people will still come down, so I lose momentum and can't keep going...
I live in Minnesota and have used two wheel drive my entire life Mr. Clarkson, thank you very much
Love the ski lift
I love the 3 liter X-type with the standard transmission.
"uhm, I need a bit more gravity.."
xD
"Andy McNab" Haha!
When it's winter here I'm usually at the beach soaking in the sun.
-San Diego, USA
Looks very summery

I guess it depends on regulations. I know in some places for example Studded Winter Tires are illegal (because of the possibility that they would damage the road), so winter drivers in such places will have to make do with something less grippy (or, improvise).
There are studded and non studded winter tires. Studded are banned in many places, but non studded winter tires perform exceptionally and RWD, FWD, or AWD make by far the biggest difference. This show consistently discredits that tires are the single most important factor for winter driving.
"anybody who would drink their own wee"
So Bear Grylls would do?
Why didn't they make special with him, it would be amazing :D They did many stuff with Ramsey for example.
Yeah but Bear Grylls was SAS so basically him and the guy in the boot are the exact same in that matter
I guess when you're in an emergency of having winter boredom, those skis, towing rope, and shelter building partner do come in handy.
the grand tour 💯
Very cute indeed. :)

0% chance it will get stuck in the snow, 100% chance it will break down and you'll be stranded anyways.
Joke's on you: it's actually a Mondeo underneath. So no ancient Jag XJ nightmares here: Mondeos are very reliable.
+appelpower1 nope.Fords and Mondeos in particular are a total piece of junk including the latest model.That is because they are trying to sell cheaper than the competition whitch means all the nastiest materials and bad quality.
Seim Old DickHead My dad has one, and he's never had trouble with it. (it's the 2007 model, though, not the one the X-Type was based on).
gotteeemm hahaha.
i have a 2004 sedane 2l diesel and i love it. it's not that unreliable as people say and it doesnt shares that many parts with the mondeo as you might think. only 20% of them. the price of the parts is the same as any other car. it has a lot of space, especially in the boot. it is comfortable. fast enough for what it should be.and the engine is great. once you hit 3 grand on te tach you're moving! other than that it purrs like a kitten :D
one of the best things is rwd when it snows so we can drift so much fun and the safty things gone huge here too(Canada)
He doesn’t need that much in way of gravity - his genius produces gravity
Yep the great advantage of AWD. Next step is to put faster cars (better yet, supercars) like the Nissan GT-R through these conditions and see how well they go (I wonder what other supercars can handle these conditions?)
With winter tires, they would all be extremely capable.
"Many many years ago I once drove a jaguar down a ski slope" - Shows red jaguar being driven only 3 year older than the one being tested. Lol
3:58 4x4 works well on big off riders and then shows a Subaru Forrester
Ι love Non-SUVs AWD cars - especially a stock STi Impreza bug eye. That car leaves a wide 😮 expression on your face everytime you encounter an uphill 40% road covered in ice.
A 1999 Vitara, a 2003 Yaris couldn't even reach halfway. Meanwhile the Subi was having the time of its life. You always think you are going to get stuck and roll all the way down, and it always makes it!

What? do you live in Nunavut or something
Perhaps Top Gear needs to pay a visit to Saskatchewan in February! Manitoba has worse weather but the roads are oh, so much better.
We just had two foot of snow in the Colorado foothills. It was a non-event---hardly even a nuisance. And my AWD Volvos did great, even when I was on a road where the snow was winning against the snow-plows.
you could get a Subaru WRX wagon and have all-wheel drive, with a 2.4 liter 4 cylander engine with a turbo on it. lots of fun for lots le$$ (cheaper to insure i bet as well)
ryanlycan1 not in the UK, buddy! Any kind of Impreza will be upwards of £5000 a year to insure for a lot of people and that's without how difficult it is to find a half decent example
The WRX will cost you much more to isure, then the head gasket will blow itself wide open !!!!!
Miller Corner £5000????? You are being ripped off. Badly.
does England not have snow tires? that's stupid.
+cookiegaming44 it's stupid to have them when the snow is on the ground for max 2 days.
+matt martini yeah I guess so...
+matt martini No, they are miles better in wet weather, should have them for winter full stop, not just for snow...
Ice tyres might, over here snow tyres are a softer compound and have more tread, they don't have any spikes to damage the road
+j4cko56 ._. snow tiers dont have spikes those are studded tiers and for the most part no one uses them cause you can but chains on your wheels
The same happens in the county of Lincolnshire, England.

Pfft. In Canada, our winter avg temperature is about -30 degrees Celsius and in the summer, it's about + 30
mukul4305 Holly Molly, and i was thinking that a summer about 40+ and a winter of nearly 0 in the capital city was bad.
In Finland winter is -30 and summer +20 rarely and a lot of rain
Yes thanks for that insight, that was the point being made throughout the whole video.
relative to which part of Canada. we're kind of big :P
+Arles Tippie true. A week of -40 to -50 is common on the praries.
If they exten this clip to when they go in the studio, they talk about that car as well then. mentioning they like the quality feel of it.
" i need a bit more gravity" loolololol
There is a cheaper way.
Buy normal car, set of winter tires and snow chains.
can't use chains on most public roafs
+Micheal J. Caboose depends on where you live.
snow chains on that paperthin layer of snow :D top kek
For all 2 days of snow we get a year right? People don't even bother with winter tyres because its just not cold enough here. I just let 2 PSI out of all my tyres if it snows so that they have a larger contact patch and are softer on the ground.
By, "normal car," what do you mean? Something like a Hyundai Sonata or Nissan Rogue/Xtrail?
1:13, this what??
In the UK this is a catastrophic storm. In Canada, this is a beautiful winter day.
ha ha ha true, and also the "i need a bit more gravity"
This makes me laugh so hard because there is so little snow compared to where I live in Canada and around my place we have huge hills where people love and it is never a problem! (That is until it snows two feet in a night)
In sweden we can have 2 meters of snow and everyone carries on like normal
Back when top gear was great. The grand tour is too Americanised and staged. Let's hope they revisit their home brewed roots
Lysergic Casserole thank you finally someone who sees the grand tour is pandering too much to the American audience
A new job and have a new Year!!
Lysergic Casserole I agree, but Amazon is an American company and if they get too close to the original show BBC could sue.
they have. the new series is great, very "middle series top gear"ish
They literally just did a jag skiing episode not too long ago like a day or 2 pretty much that clip he showed us just with Hammond and May
haha the conditions it was tested is like spring in northern Norway XD
btw: in winter they got spikes up there, so also cars without 4wd don't get stuck so easily
I'd still have an E91 3 series touring with their AWD
Is it me or that SAS guy looked like Hammond?
its you
oh yes, because they would pay for him to go to the set for a one off joke and not even be recognizable
Hammond has brown eyes....
"Jagu-ish"
The way people were acting during the snow storm is how is Texans act if we get 1 inch of snow.
Winter tyres on two wheel drive cars work great, just the UK are too tight to buy a set.
