BANGERNOMICS (sub2k) of the week/day

Go for it, it's the tax that has made that a bargain. If we had tax on the fuel instead I imagine that would three/four times the price.

Sure, but if she is anything like my wife I'll be told to f right off.

Ah lads that Jag is scandalous. I'm getting paid next week and I'd really consider it. I'm 3/4 the country away though so I'd want to be sure to be getting it to drive to Cork.

Are these any use for a day to day motor?

Probably OK, but being a JDM car insurance may be a little restrictive.
Check the timing chain is OK.

I never told my wife how much the Lexus was to tax but she gave out saying that bloody thing costs 800 a year to tax, little does she know it cost twice that..:D

That Jag is for nothing though!

CiDeRmAn

Which tax rate does the Jag qualify for?
€1494 pa or €1809 pa?

Cortina_MK_IV

€1,494 pa.

can someone please point out some known & expensive problems with this type of car because I'm dangerously tempted at that price, and I know shag all about Jags only that I'd love one

The auto ones are meant to be a bit iffy. I had a manual one for a year and loved it. Was getting around 30mpg. The manual is quite fast.

That passenger airbag looks like it's being deployed at some stage.

colm_mcm

Think that's common enough on 147s for the cover not to be fitting right.

The first thing I'd ditch. A good brand radio isn't much more to buy these days.

Just get her into it for a little drive. Woman is wild and wilful, but can be tamed by the purr of a Jaguar.

colm_mcm

It would be a fair % of the price of that car though John!

Five-speed Ford 5R55N autoboxes are notoriously intolerant of not having regular changes of hideously expensive ATF and have an only partially-justified reputation for causing all sorts of bother. The 2003 facelift included a rather better six-speed ZF unit. Manual 'boxes are lifted from old Fordson tractors and can withstand nuclear attack.

And yes, it might be a lardy old Petunia, but it can hitch up it's skirts and give 'em Tee-Dee-red-fcukan-Eye when necessary.

Relatively cheap to run, retro cool and strong as an ox. Oh and it'll only go up in value from Here on in. Test worth talking about too.
