Convince me to NOT buy a Jaguar

[HWY HNTR]

not sure if the Jag you're wanting to get has any similarities with the Jag I'm about to compare it to BUT. My friend has a 2001 Jaguar S-type 4.0 and it's one of the biggest pieces of shit one of my friends has ever owned. It only has 90,000 miles on it, and has had transmission work, ignition work (twice) headliner is saggy, boot lid is open light is always on, his fenders changed colors from white to green (his car is white), the windows crack when you roll them back up (like if they're down and you roll them back up they make a very high pitched, like a banshee breaking glass over your head noise, almost like the glass is going to crack sound), there's no legroom, no headroom, my mercedes when it had the stock 3.2 outran it, it didn't come with a cd player (it came with a cd changer but not in the head unit if that makes sense?) it came with a tape player, etc. Like I said, I know a lot of people say that this S type p.o.s. model was based off a Ford Taurus so that's probably why it sucks so much dick, but if the jag you want to get has any similarities to this jaguar don't get it.

Kinda do it, these have horrible interiors. My mate is just looking at upgrading his XJ40 to an XJR, and can't get over the horribly tacky interiors on this shape. Rather the older model before.

But yeah, I think overall, do it.

[ratmog]

get an older model.

not so sure about the XJ's but I would love to see a XK stanced....

Call me crazy but jags are asshole ugly to me.

The interiors are nice but they are less reliable than a vag car which is scary.

This. I would say don't do it from a reliability stand point. my friend's dad had a one just like that in white and it spent more time in the shop getting fixed than it did out on the road.

And the looks aren't too bad if you can make it look like that black VIP.

As Nike once said... JUST DO IT!

[Krolik]

Because it's a Ford.

[ImAwesome]

Dont not do it

[SeanDub]

Do it, looks like it would make a fantastic paper weight!

[Zic]

you should not buy it because you cant afford real wheels for your mazda.
knock off wheels on a jag = fail. as they are on any car.

[FAneek]

eh...dont do it

[Ollie]

I absolutely love xjrs and I have to talk myself out of getting one next every time I see one. So dope and vip

We had a 2000 XJR at work the other day. Little electrical problems and things of that nature. Parts aren't cheap either.

On top of that my Kia has more rear seat leg room. I was shocked when I looked in the back seat and there was only about 10" of leg room and the drivers seat wasn't all the way back.
