For Sale 53 Jag X Type diesel. Less than £500

[Cavcraft]

And good on you for doing so, that looks a good buy for someone, especially at that price.

[Bren]

Those seats are delish.

[The Old Bloke Next Door]

A bloke round the corner from me has one for sale for £900, £425 looks very good value.

[greengartside]

Bloody hell, that is seriously good value! Even for the sake of some tyres and sorting the alarm out it could never leave you out of pocket. I'd be all over that a tramp with chips if I could sell my Fiesta.

[Six-cylinder]

I was not expecting leather seats for that price, big want!

[trigger]

Thats a lovely looking car. Proper luxury for the price of a fucked Ka.

Proper luxury?  DIY gears and a 4-banger diesel?  Ahem...

Having said that, for the price it would be pretty hard to beat as a WBOD.

[Six-cylinder]

I love the brown pair, our last S1 was brown.

[stephen01]

this would make an ideal birthday present for me.

[Six-cylinder]

I need help to come up with a story for Mrs 6C why I need it, when I already have my winter cars a Rover 75 Touring, Volvo 740 estate and Volvo V70 XC?

[oldcars]

That's a bargain, hope someone on here takes it.

[SiC]

That looks a very nice place to be sat. This vs a cheap Mondeo ... no contest. Reminds me when people say the Saab 9-3 is a Vectra C. Yes it may be based on it, but they're extremely different cars in NVH.

[Insideimsmiling]

Always liked the looks much more than the s type, although a good one can be fun and our old 3ltr one was fine. But not a proper Jag! Who knows now? The F Pace is a lovely thing once inside and it does have Jag DNA in there somewhere.

Anyway with an XJ8 and a XJS at home we are going through a Jag period right now, so with that in mind I would like to make an offer on this.....Wilson x2 should I message you directly?

[saucedoctor]

I had a brand new one of those. Very noisy when cold, drove quite well, but not that quick. Had a talking fuel flap reminding you to put diesel fuel in it. I also had a later 2.2D wagon in uber-rare Sov spec. Equally noisy when cold, but a good bit sharper and faster. I thought the radio was fucked in it because the volume went up and down by itself. RTFM.

If I didn't live the other end of Blighty I would go and fetch that.

When new, they were pretty minging, the ridiculous pompous "keeping up appearances" aura these things have. Who were the first owners trying to kid? Looks like one of those Nissan Viewt things crossed with a Suzuki Baleno. Nice interior though - for 400 quid, what a nice place to spend the winter at 45 mpg.

 

A mate recently bought a semi-proper one (not FWD Transit powered), the 3.0 V6 manual with AWD and 350 quid.  When fairly recent 'prestige' cars get down to bicycle money, they suddenly become very attractive.

The security of a proper boot is paramount in your area, Cylinder. Do it. I can see a bald patch on your drive.

How can you have a "slight fault" on a main beam switch............................

I tested one of these a while back, when you operated the indicators it would flash the main beams - once, not really what you want when you're making a right hand turn and there is another car waiting to turn right from where you're turning in to.

[Insideimsmiling]

Thanks to Wilson x2 I spoke to the garage this morning and have arranged to go up tomorrow and take a look at the X type which will have a good home along with our XJ8 and XJS . if all goes to plan it will replace a Skoda Fabian and. Rat look Polo as an everyday car for commutes etc. A first attempt at a live collection thread looms, so fingers crossed it all goes to plan, just need to check insurance etc.

[stephen01]

​I can't seem to convince  the wife that this jag is a good idea as a 3rd car, it really does look like a bargain at £500.

[Insideimsmiling]

[MarvinsMom]

whether it is £500 or £425, it sounds and looks like a bit of a barg for some one.

 

I mean, run it for a few months and either scrap it or sell it, WCPGW???

[Mr A Lawrence]

 

 

The XF never had the 2.2 4cyl engine.

 

The early 08 to 12 cars were the same as the S type with the 3.0 pez or 2.7d V6 engine. The 12 "phase2" cars have the LR/jag 3.0d V6 and 3.0 pez engine.

 

The 2.2 is only fitted to the freelander

[Insideimsmiling]

WWCPGW? Well let's see. A live thread has begun, so follow our adventures there.

The Freelander and XF were both fitted with the PSA/Ford 'Lion' engine of 2.2 litres.

 

The X-type got a Transit/Defender 2.0 and 2.2 derv (the latter of which initially had cylinder head issues when first fitted to the Mondeo).

[rantingYoof]

Yup. Snr Yoof was adamant on his 3.0 XF as the 190hp 2.2 is a bit wishy washy when pushed.
