Can't wait!!!!!!!

Hi peeps,

I am currently awaiting to collect my 2004 X-Type 2.0d. Bought it from a guy in Leigh, Lancashire, and he has couple jobs & touch ups he wants to do to it. I've paid £1350 for it (was up at £2295, but I had a trade in) and its done 89000 miles. Full Jaguar dealer/and or jag specialist service history.......Sound investment?????

I had a 2002 2.1 V6 x-type, couple years ago, absolutely loved it, but after the o/s/r wishbone collapsed while doing 50-60mph it really put a dent in my confidence in it and decided to sell it. Worst decision I ever made, when I watched her being driven away by the new owners, I really did have a heavy heart. Stilll regularly speak to the owners and they still love the car.

 

So now it is time to have another, hopefully the right one, I just love the looks of the x type and this time I went for a little easier fuel consumption, although that has not really been a factor. I must admit I do love the colour f the one I'm getting (steel grey??) with half leather seats.

Really pleased to join you guys (and girls), and I will apologise in advance for all the stupid questions that will undoubtedly appear. lol.

Many thanks Raymond.

Welcome to the club, Raymond.

There is nothing I can tell you about the x type that you don't already know.  The 2.0 litre Diesel is a well tried and tested. 

It looks like your car is getting looked after a bit before you collect it.  The Leythers are nice and genuine people so I reckon you will enjoy.

Regards,

Thanks Peter,

Had her now since Monday and apart from the drivers airbag light coming on she runs so sweet and pulls lovely... I am in love again.
