Jag xfs any good?

[katy81]

Guy I got the clk from wants it back.

I think it's the v8 version

 

[dlockers]

Makes sense to me; no more photos required even. Does it include the Turkish air freshener?

 

[Feek]

An old Jaguar V8. What could possibly go wrong?

No, seriously, what could go wrong? Is the forum database big enough to store the list?

[Yaayuh!]

You absolutely should do it. Looks like a great deal.

 

[ci_newman]

I agree with the others, that's a bargain of a deal for you.

 

[tom_e]

The guy is basically robbing himself, bite his hand off before he realises

Pot kettle black says the man with the V8 7 series

 

[Uther]

Just wait for the new Jag, it'll be here soon. Get a pink one.

 

[GarethSouthpete]

In all seriousness, absolutely do not do this.

Clearly the guy regrets selling because the JaG is mostly likely a lemon.

 

[Diddums]

Do it, and create an ownership thread so we can all follow along.

Start by decatting it.

I'm looking at it out of the window now, it's lovely

Not a V8 if it's an XF-S.
It will be either a 3.0 V6 (with or without supercharger depending on year) or a 3.0 TT diesel.

You should absolutely do it though. Old XFs are super reliable. I don't think I've ever heard of anyone having an issue with one. They only get better with age and milage too.

It’s a no brainer. If you haven’t done it yet you should 100% cancel your entire day and make this happen.

Jaguar XF-S are super reliable…… trust me…..

I already have a 3 litre mondeo.

I think I'll keep the clk

 

[blueacid]

I had an XF-S. 3.0 twin-turbo diesel.

It must have been an outlier, I had a thoroughly expensive experience with it; yours will surely be much better!

Decatting? Given it's a Jaaag you'll have to be more specific: do you mean fiddling around with the exhaust? Or prising all the leapers and badges off the bodywork?

 

[sx_turbo]

Xf-s diesel = bad

Xf-s petrol pretty good,

Though an xf-s on a 2011 looks to be diesel only..

I was hoping you’d swap and give us a ownership running report

Deal of the day right here!
