Just one major problem with this car. Can you guess what it is? :)

Diesel  :)

But of course. ;D

Looks as though it has the uprated 18 way seats same as my car though. :y.......pretty good value if it is as it seems.


I take that back. I've had a look and find I have an extra knob to play with. I think the car has 14 way rather than 18 way seats.........not that it matters once you have set them up.

Yeah, like the upgraded seats.

It’s in Bedford though, so probably stolen.

If it was for sale in Liverpool there would be no 'probably' about it. :)

The 270bhp TDV6 is a pretty nice motor, for a tractor.  Allegedly same economy and its the same tax as the 230bhp one, so why would anyone by the lower powered one.

Cabin space is an issue in both those, which may or may not be an issue.  The XJ is a bloody long car. Do not underestimate its length if parking is tight.  I scrapped 2 opposite wheels in a city centre carpark before I went away, as it simply would not get around the ramp.

Clearly, the XJ is far better equipped as standard (if it genuinely is a Portfolio - many dealers class all Jags as Portfolios due to certain options being ticked), but is more of a detached drive than the XF.

Any difference between them, other than an engine map?

That XF looks a bargain, at that kind of money you could just run it until it (seriously) breaks.  :y

All my alloys were refurb'd before I bought my ML and I caught my rear offside wheel going down the ramps of a multi-storey car park within a couple of weeks of buying it  >:( >:( >:(

Multi storeys, even the newer ones, are just not built with 4x4's or luxury limos in mind. The older ones are even worse. I worked at London Olympia for a couple of years. The multi storey there was built in 1937, the first in London, imagine the problems we had there.

Thought I thought you were after a V8 petrol. Not a V6 tractor

That caught my eye, still also like that XJ posted as well. I can hardly deploy full power of 3.2 on my commute so V8 would be a bit wasted. But still considering options.
