Actually, edit, one of these:

Thats still got a shit load of depreciation left in it. And the lack of a proper gearbox may remove such a car from my list...  ...maybe as a potential Omega replacement in a year or 2. Have to be careful with Jags, make sure it has no Ford drivetrain on it.

My neighbours Jag tractor was properly quick (for a £5k tractor), and went properly sideways in a very progressive, controllable way. Oddly, he hasn't let me try any of his current cars

Good price and spec, shame about the looks.

How much do you intend to spend?, Mr admin man.......£10,000.......£15,000......or £20,000?

I hope that you're not as tight with money as rumour suggests.

 Nice enough for a smoky, oily derv drinker, but £1500 overpriced in my opinion.

I agree on the looks as not an S type fan,but you can have an XJ with that motor for similar outlay

[tunnie]

Yeah I think it's worth shelling out a little more for XJ 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Yeah I think it's worth shelling out a little more for XJ 

Agreed.......The XJ is more Cameron Diaz........The S-Type more Susan Boyle.

[Sir Tigger KC]

It's a shame that the X types have such a bad rep. 

I've always fancied one of the AWD estate's, but the tales of hidden rust under the sill covers and transfer boxes made of chocolate put me right off!

Yeah, with a ford gearbox. That's why it broke.

[TheBoy]

I'm not as old as tunnie, so assume XJ is a no-no

Retro car or dull modern car

Depends what you class as retro? Anything older than about 15yrs would have to be very, very, very special, and not capable of self destruction if left unused for periods.
