Is this too cheap?

[tmcthree]

Hi guys,

 

Totally new (don't even own a jaguar yet), but I found this ad and I'm wondering if anyone has an opinion on an x-type of this price.

Seems cheap, is that a reason to avoid? Is it possible that a decent model would be this price or am I just asking for a world of pain?

 

Thanks

It does seem cheap, but you can pick up really good second hand Jags cheap , haven't got got a friendly mechanic you could pay a few bob to to give it the "once over" ? .

 

Or why not pay the AA to do a vehicle inspection for you, it is about £150 for non members, then you would know what you're getting.

It does seem cheap, but it is a very high mileage averaging over 16k a year.

 

I agree with Trevor K as I would also get an inspection done.

 

I would also ask if there is a full warranty for at least a month, as it is from a dealer.

 

I would also check out the reliability of the dealer, if you have any local contacts.

It does seem cheap but needs work...which is okay if you can do it yourself or enlist the services of a reasonably priced mechanic.

But it is a high spec car so maybe worth a punt ?
