Hertz Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 This is the cheapest one of these I have seen. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201708158360834?radius=1500&advertising-location=at_cars&model=XKR&onesearchad=Used&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=New&sort=price-asc&make=JAGUAR&postcode=nn84sa&page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hertz Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Can't get these 645's out of my mind. Arranged to see another one this week. It's had more owners than a struggling premiership football team has had managers. Smoked in more than a bugle in a laboratory and done 133,000 miles. Should be fine and still excited.

Hertz Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Apart from the smokey smell (anyone recommend a good product to get rid of the fag smell?) it seems a good un. Left a dipper and pick it up in a few days. sofarsogood, Bren, Sigmund Fraud and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hertz Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 645 with 10 owners! It's had a bit of cash spent on it to be fair (rocker gaskets and auto box flush and sump upgrade) full service history. Drives really well, the noise is epic. More or less exact spec I wanted, and it was cheap.... £3250 we shook on. The Moog and sporty-shite 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schaefft Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 3250 sound like a great deal. Lets hope it doesnt burn oil or has that horrible coolant pipe leak many of them suffer from. Definitely interested in hearing more about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More or less exact spec I wanted, and it was cheap.... £3250 we shook on.That's a whole lot of car for £3250. Works out at <£300 a month over a year. Compared to buying a new car, it's a no-brainer (to me, anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertz Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Picked this up today, got my essentials. Tunes, Air freshener for the fag smell and tyreweld because its got non run flats fitted. Fatha Hertz picked me up and we were going great guns until they closed the M6 before Preston. It was weird walking up the hard shoulder as I decided to get some nosebag from Charnock Richard services as we were literally 300 yards from it when we were at standstill. Eventually we got to the car in Thornton Cleveleys, exchanged monies and paper work and I was on my way. Quick check of the computer shows the previous owner was enjoying it to the full. 15 MPG! Pez shot. Got home without any issues, just a wheel wobble @ 70 mph which hopefully will just be a balance or could be the shite rubber. Really chuffed with it, sounds fantastic. Also reset the mpg trip and got it just above 30 on the way home so that will do nicely for the amount of miles I will be doing in it. Sorry for the thread hijack Bren, hope you get yourself something you want too next year. The Moog, garethj, CreepingJesus and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
