The picture is clearly a fake, the garage is in Barnsley (or near by) and by the looks of it, they have electric! (They have CCTV).

Clearly Barnsley + Electricity = Lie?

I pay between £199 and £235 for a service from Jaguar every year or 16000 miles using the 3+ scheme.

For this I get as much 'posh' coffee and fancy pastries as I can drink and eat. They will also give me  a lift into town if I want to go shopping. If I can't be arsed to drive there they will pick and return the car free of charge and leave me another Jag while my car is away (Actually, last time it was a Honda Jizz :-\)

I also get to have a go on the receptionists knockers. All part of the customer service. :)

Good. My car is five years old, so we'll see what you pay then....unless you've traded it for a proper diesel car.

The above figures  are obviously just for the service. Any additional parts cost extra........although to date I have not needed any.

As for  buying a car fitted with a lorry/canal boat/cement mixer engine, don't hold your breath. :)

An MOT, service and my road tax costs about the same as just your road tax. :)

Plus...I travel about 17,000 miles a year, costing me around £2,500 in fuel. A petrol car would probably add about £1,500 to that and a car like yours would double it.

Small beer to you, but not to a poor pensioner like me.  :'(

I'm not in the least bit sensible and in the past have been utterly reckless. I tend to think subjectively rather than objectively.

An accountant would no doubt be impressed by your frugality with regard to motoring, but more important to me is how it makes me feel.

A large irresponsible supercharged petrol engine is always going to make people feel more happy than a dreary lifeless derv. It's not rocket science. ;)

In the same way ........having sex with Rachel Riley is going to make any man (or woman) feel far better than having sex with Diane Abbott.......even though it will cost more. :y


PETROL RULES...... :D

Obviously the Jaaag is the epitome of reliability ( ;D ) but you would probably spend more time at the Maserati dealership, so you should expect to get better eye candy to distract you from how expensively broken the car is...
