end of the line for me and jags

[SplatSpeed]

ok so my second and last jag is going at the end of the month

i loved the cars

the handling and power and they were comfortable to

but they didnt allways work

so we are replacing the jag with a vauxhall

good luck everyone else who has one but hor me it is game over with jags

had an s reg xjr from 2 yo old

then a year old xtype

total 1 engine, 1 throttle body, two sets front disks one front caliper 2 sets fron t pads in 20k miles thats the xjr plus niggling pains in the arse.

xtype blew turbo hose off, diesel injection pump and injectors car off the road for 2 months. and other nighley problems still i am rid now 03 plate 50k miles

next door neighbor had the same xtype his caught fire under the bonnet never the same again real dog of a car turbo was recently replaced.

A set of front pads every 20K miles in a high performance car like like XJR is good, X type is not a Jaguar

2 sets of disks and pads in 20 k

i know the x type is not a jag hoping it would be more reliable boy was i wrong

[SplatSpeed]

yes but the money i save on haveing one makes up for it

got two years warrenty to do the miles i need in then on to another

loved my cavaliers and they were reliable

Just put front pads (lockheed) on my XJR today, cost £26 incl VAT........also it had an annoying suspension rattle at the front.....lower shocker bushes, bought a pair from Jaguar, price £5.50 + Vat.......what I am getting at is a £55K car thats as fast as (some) Ferraris, can be forgiven going through brakes when they are priced sensibly..........shame you have gone to Vauxhall but you might be back. Good Luck

a set of pads and disks every 10 k is a bit of a pisser

the new engine 3 months after getting it also puts a crimp on your day as they give you a 3.2 sport to drive for the month
