Hi, I am currently researching the x-type estate as I am looking to buy one. It will be my first Jaguar so I am looking for advice on what to look for when buying. I have around £5000 to spend, my annual milage is 10000 miles, mainly shorter runs. I am thinking about getting a petrol as i don't won't to destroy a diesal turbo with short trips. Would my thinking be correct in this area? Or should I just go for the more popular diesal? What common faults should I look for? I would also prefer automatic are they any good? I normaly have ford and do most of the repairs myself to save money so I would also be looking to be doing this on a jag, are parts expensive? A lot of questions, sorry, this is my first port of call so any help is appreciated.
