    good power specs - depends on the gearbox ratios as to how well it can shift though . bit lardy and old manish to me , alot of ford mondeo on them and the depreciate really badly. would be a monster car with a remap like

    They did a S Type Rwith souped up spec.

    Absolutely beautiful body. I cant believe they discontinued it, it was gonna be my holy Grail car when I'm a fat old geezer and cant climb into a Jeep any more.

    Now I am an old man I am having a Jag next. Wanted one since I was 16. Can't make my mind up between an S type and an XJ. S type may be more practical for work but I the XJ has always been my favourite.

    Low mileage diesels are like rocking horse shite though unless you have wads of cash.

    I can't afford a new one and have always been put off by the potential repair cost of a low mileage used one. Am I too cautious?
