[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Less than 11000 miles but I wager it'll fail on the same thing as my old XFR.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Nothing to do with the air freshener.

Rear tyres that resemble racing slicks?

Michelin Pilot Sport 4s 285/30/20 are pretty new......and the old girl doesn't have the firepower of the modern super saloons we have today .... So no.


Jaguar needs to add 150 BHP and all wheel drive.......oh, and lose 500 KG while they are at it.

Well the X260 shaved best part of 200kgs off......and did add AWD....but dropped the V8 (although they are dropping it into the XE!)

The upcoming 600 BHP AWD XE Project 8 has a certain hot rod appeal ........The asking price of £130,000 less so.

Loss of a full American must help with fuel use, also see even the 180bhp Auto falls into £30/yr tax bracket.

How do you find it on fuel?

[Varche]

I bet it will be something electrical.

Rear lights maybe.

The drivers medallion is too large, too shiny, and at the wrong angle, thus is likely to dazzle oncoming traffic!

Shirt needs to be unbuttoned to waist. A pair of seventies shades is also essential.

Youre in good company, my Zafa is in too, hoping my tyres survive the mot till payday, certainly VERY borderline

Beyond all expectations, the last tank, based on pumped fuel, has achieved just shy of 60mpg with 6 round trips to work and a reasonable helping of local short journeys

That's very impressive! Thought it would be mid to high 40's

Yours the 180?

Seen second hand examples, of the X260 with ~80k going for 15k.

Nah, rear wheel drive is more fun

Nope, just the 163 (which is actually still pretty adequate and also easily tuned up to the higher figures)

80k for 15k, shows what a good deal I got!
