Latest trade in
« on: 21 November 2017, 19:16:14 »

The latest trade in at the local Ford stealers is an 11 plate XF S the owner traded it against a 16 plate Mondeo diesel.The Jag is one of the first series[?] it has the rounded headlamps and the name Jaguar stamped into the chrome strip that runs between the tail lights.How much they'll want for it once it hits the forecourt I'll be interested to see-not that I'd buy it anyway I'm just nosey like that :D ;D

XF-S means full fat engine, could have optional sports seats. Probably around £10k depending on miles

And spec, from that era. The Portgolios hold a premium over the Luxury S and Premium S

The 2017 version I drove for a week came with 300BHP and 516lb ft of twist.

Quite nippy albeit over a narrow rev band.

If they're worth in the £10k region then this one as I suspected will be way OTT.I don't know spec[other than it's an "S"]or mileage but it stands then in at £10,800.Add on prep work/valeting and all that then add their profit margin and I'd guess you'd probably be in the £13k region?

£13k for a 6 year old car... :(

It's this sort of thing that makes me realise what a bargain my Omega was.

I'd certainly be willing to pay £13000 for a 6 year old Veyron. :)

Yup, as been mentioned there is no Ford/Rover/Vauxhall RWD market any more, so it means paying premium prices.

It's more like £15k for say XJ or similar vintage.  :(

FWD can easily be had for £10k and 3 years old, e.g. Insignia, my old VW CC etc.

Big premium for RWD now  :(

A nice example of a 6 year old (2011) Jaguar.

£20,000 would be more realistic. It runs on God's own fuel. Petrol. :)

Insignia and VW are hardly comparable to a Jag. My astra elite with all the toys was over £26000 new, but I picked it up for £8500, three years old with 20000 miles. Ex mobility so all services done........bargain....but not unusual.

Can be good value and usually low mileage because the people who originally own them are often too unwell to drive. :)

MRRP. Although I doubt anybody of sound mind pays full price for any new car. For £8500 you have a lot of car, albeit powered by the fuel of Satan. :)
