Just a thought..........

I bought a 1999 T reg petrol for a few hundred quid and, after getting used to the jaguar comfort decided to punt £4500 on a 06 2.7d.

Excellent car and no bother as the T reg had a few "niggles"

Why not increase your budget and get the best you can.

There's a garage in Ellesmere Port that has a 55 reg 2.7d for 5k, one owner and100k milage.

Hi Phil,

 

A friend of mine bought an s type brand new in 1999 with the 2.5 litre engine.  It gave him no problems.  The same engine is fitted in the X type, one of which I had, and I found it quite economical and never game me a problem..

 

Peter.

 

P.S.  I have quite a lot of sawdust --  applewood mostly - which is used regularly     ---------   for hot smoking fish!
