I like those, a lot, but they have an odd market and don't sell that fast  :(

there is just no market value for big cars these days its a steal at the price you paid for it. there was an x type that came into audi on trade not so long  back with 21000 miles on the clock full jag history all the extras they sold it for 1.500 i thought about getting it  till i took it  for a test drive i got to be truthful they are horrible so i thought about an s type and that was horrible as you have already commented on they feel small and cramped but very quick  and they didnt seem to handle as good as the omega and seemed to be very plasticy i have decided to get an insignia elite they are just like the omega but better fingers crossed you get a good profit on the jag  :y

The higher powered 2.0 CDTi in an Insigina has 160 bhp that's not a lot less than a 2.6 Omega. Also you can get a 4 wheel drive Insignia  :y
