[Six-cylinder]

2000 Jaguar S-Type

 

3.0i V6 240 bhp 5 speed Auto

 

97,000 miles MOT 4^th Oct 2019

 

Ex Wurum, Stephen01

 

Looks fantastic, drives beautifully, smooth, powerful and quiet.

 

Cams are chain driven no belts

 

Being pre emission for tax just £155 for six months or £255 for 12 months

 

V5C in my name, get you home tax

 

 

Not so Good

 

Cassette part of the radio does not work (what a disappointment this was when I got my Morse tapes out to listen to in my Jag)

 

I have had to top up the power steering reservoir

 

I have had to top up the header tank with half a Ltr

 

Headlights aim low, leveling does not seem to work so I added a screw as per youtube to do it manually but this has not solved it.

 

Headlights need polish

 

Central locking does not work, one key that operates driver’s door, reach across for the other doors and release buttons for boot and fuel cap that work fine.

 

A few minor dings and chips on paintwork

 

Few small splits in interior plastics if you are being picky

 

No record of last service

 

Steering wheel slightly at an angle but car drives in a straight line.

 

I was told when I got it “the air con doesn't work- prob just a regas”

 

 

For sale due to the first catch of 2019.

 

Usual help with collection from local railway station etc

If it had been a diesel...

 

GLWTS!

[dean36014]

Bloody hell Chris, if you'd had said that is all you wanted for it I'd have drove that home today! Looks lovely, great buy for the money.

It is still here waiting for the first person to commit to it.

 

Only for sale as I have 4 daily cars now!

[Schaefft]

Damn, no space otherwise I'd have it.

[Broadsword]

These do look really rather rakish in black. I wish I had a farm to set up a Jaguar sanctuary, but alas! GLWTS!

[eddyramrod]

There's no guarantee when or even if I'll get my licence back (I have applied) otherwise I would jump at this.  It's a beautiful car (of a type I've never owned!) at a price I would very happily pay.  Dammit.

[dean36014]

Well just checked mpg figures nd its going to be a bit pricy i think to run as a daily on limited budget unfortunately

[Tetleysmooth]

Oooo, that's rather nice.

 

Get thee behind me Satan.

[The Moog]

This definitely is a lovely old thing. I don't think you will get much more car for this little cash!

Pre-facelift.

You can't have my chocolates though...

[Crispian_J_Hotson]

I also can't have that hugo suit, enjoying loss of sleep and saving for two heads and an auto box*.

 

* I'm sure it'll be fine*.

 

The missis knew this was coming. Fortunately I just missed out on a mid life crisis Z3 summer smoker as the bids went too high for it had 'issues'.

 

Her reaction tonight was... "For fucks sake (insert name here)". Then I proceeded to explain that if we can daily a V8 discovery, this will be a doddle. "Then you've got to get it MOT'd" was her reply... "Already covered" I said. 

Then she asked if it was an auto to which I confirmed it was. "So I can drive it then"? "Yes, yes you can dear... I'm off to make a cup of tea now and have a lie down".

 

Went well I reckon.

[Mrs6C]

Mrs BM will love it!

[Crispian_J_Hotson]

Shits just got real. Spent 2 hours of my life wasting it on looking at insurance quotes. I also found out a new feature... if you dick about with them to make them cheaper have to change details entered incorrectly a few times then you can get 'barred' from buying from that insurer online! Highest over 3 grand, lowest just over 500. That's too dear for someone like me with my exemplary driving record, they're taking the biscuit!

 

In feeling hard done by I rang my current insurer who's doing it for another £65 over what they were doing the touring at which totals just over 400 quid with national recovery to home. 12/10 will use again.

 

BRING IT ON!

[Maurice Marina]

Couple of years I bought a similar one for £2k and I thought that was a bargain!

[Saabnut]

I am so, so pleased this has sold! I am needing a cheap small economical shopping trolley but this was calling to me. Thank you buyer!

[Six-cylinder]

I took it out this morning and my bottom lip was quivering at what I have done!

 

I will really miss that silky smooth shove that it gives.

[bangernomics]

Well bought/sold

[wuvvum]

Glad this is staying within the fold.  It really is a lovely thing to drive.

[gadgetgricey]

well bought sir.

Looks as though you are sorted insurance wise, but you could always try Peter S Taylor for classic insurance.

The car needs to be over £1500 for Insurance purposes though.
