Used jag inspection
Discussion
So.... I have found a car that I like, but am eager to get it inspected. It is a bit shabby, but I don't want a pristine one that I will slowly ruin through my owning and using it! This car will be bought to use...
My parents assure me the AA is a good choice, but I would rather have a specialist look it over. Only trouble is, I don't know any specialists near the car ( East Grinstead). One idea is to phone Jaguar Surrey and see if they would do it for me. If nothing else, I will use the AA, but I was hoping I could get some suggestions about X300 specialists.
Thanks everyone

Jaguar Steve, as always, your feedback is golden.
I fin myself in the position that no one wants to sell their pride and joy to me on account of my age: I have seen two people who have let me know they they have decided to keep it (code for they don't want me as the new owner). I saw the manual I am looking at on car and classic, and find that I much prefer the driving experience to that of the automatic. My choice is therefore severely limited in terms of manuals.
This dealer is himself a jaguar enthusiasts member, and was at Silverstone at an event over the weekend. He owns his own XJ manual and thus I am reassured that the car is not a £500 auction/px quick buck. The question is whether it is good condition for the money he is asking
Is your feedback basically that I just need someone to check that it is a decent car, not necessarily an excellent version of this model?
Thank you very much for your pointers across all the threads, they have been gratefully received
