Not trying to rain on your parade, but that version of the Jag was discontinued in 2008. Although it was updated, and morphed into the XF, mechanical parts should still be readily available, but body/interior parts would be a concern to me. The S-Type was also a cousin under the skin to the Lincoln LS, which I had one of (2000 model year). Ford killed that one off at the end of the '06 model year, and parts started to dry up, so even though I really liked the car, I sent it down the road...
