Definitely a visual difference. The 1990 Jag had the newer, squared-off
nose with much less pronounced "humps". More reliable, yes. But
wayyyyy less sexy.

Jaguar was purchased by Ford in February, 1990. Ford applied it's own
QC procedures to Jaguar production and quality did improve
significantly. However, I doubt there would be any visible change in
1990. Jaguar never did make a profit while under Ford ownership and
Ford sold it off to Tata Motors in 2008.

Okay, I get the impression that this car has a bad reputation.
Care to fill me in so I can pass it along to the presently unaware
owner?
Yes. Sell it while it is running. :)
The specific age of it may make it OK. I think that 1990 was the
point where everything improved.1989 and older are junk. The 1990 and
newer seem to be much better.
