Very good price but still coming up for 3 years old and its retained about 60% of the purchase price . I think thats pretty good . My Jag XJ lost that it the first 18 months !!

if it is an 09 plate then it is about right; this time of year. Honestly though I would expect a 59 plate to be about this money as that was about that in the winter 2011 with half that mileage wink

As Yeti says there will be a few traded in against V12Vr's. Wait until the winter and a few more will be available at knock down prices no doubt. Then they will appreciate again come the summer!!

Bearing in mind you can buy an as-near-as-dammit new one for not much over 100k, such as the lovely amethyst one at wilmslow with an asking price of 110 (assume you can get it for say 105) which has 821 miles, registered jan 2012, lightweight seats, B&O and Garmin sat nav, I'd argue that cars a few yrs old at 80+k represent poorer value than the example above.......difference of 25k max between those two examples which is a little less than 25%

Car decent price but 13.2% APR yikes. I know that's a common rate from a dealer but how much do you have to want a car to pay that. Shop around for finance (sorry for mentioning the 'f' word Mr G), that's where the big saving is to be had.

This car is #023 and has had a few owners. The price probably reflects this and the mileage.
Any potential buyer should enquire as to the car's initial usage!

Indeed I would agree - a "bargain" it is not. It is cheap, but as pointed out above there are tons of cars out there at the moment that represent far better bargains / value for money.

That said if all someone has is £80k max to spend on a V12V then this could well be the car for them!

Finance bloody finance !!! And to silver speed .......you only lost 40% on a jag in 18 months ! You did well smile. Apert from needing a labotomly for buying a new jag in the first place !

Congrats its a good price for the middle of summer. There are some jokers out there with way over priced cars. They will still have them at the end of the year when they will be 10k less.
