• When looking for an XJ-SC Bear in mind they are basicaly an XJ-S so same areas need addressing. especialy the two wells in the boot left & right hand side.Often filled with water, check the drain holes are clear,if infact they exist. However on or two Items are usualy missing So check the following have not been removed Targa storage Bag Hood Cover Tool kit should be the Black tool case type not a tool roll Jack should be in Carpet type Bag . These items are pretty rare & not cheap

• If you are viewing a prospective XJS purchase, take a close look at the jacking points. They should have clean lines with the locating lugs at 90 degrees to the floor. If the lugs have taken on a jaunty angle or receded into the floor then things are amiss. Ask the owner if he is willing to jack the car up using the original jack and jacking points. If he agrees and does so successfully it’s a promising sign that the car is in good shape.

• Tyres – check for excessive wear to the inner edge of the front tyres, as this points to worn front suspension bushes. Tramlining – describes the behaviour of an XJ40 with worn front suspension bushes, which will follow the road contours and “jump” out of them. (Once experienced – never forgotten!)

• For an X300, cloth trim and a manual gearbox will be cheaper to buy, as people expect a Jaguar to have hide trim and an automatic transmission. (the X308 was only available with automatic transmission)

• Prior to purchase check with a Jaguar Dealer by giving him the VIN and accertain if the "Throttle Body" has been changed under Service action No S514V5. Could save you money!

• Although the problem of high content Sulphur in petrol has now dissapeared. I know many people are still worried about Nikasil lined engines. To put your mind at rest if you are thinking about bying an early XK8 ask the seller to have a BLOW BY TEST carried out.

• Production of the "baby" Jaguar is due to cease at the end of 2009 - so if you fancy a NEW X-type, grab a bargain while you still can. Last of the line cars are always the most sought after in years to come, and are always sent out with lots of extra goodies to encourage potential buyers to use up the stocks. Once production ends, there will no longer be a Jaguar estate car in the line-up. The X-type is also the only Jaguar to feature 4 wheel drive! Perhaps not always a favourite with purists, to its credit, it pioneered both the estate body and 4 wheel drive for Jaguar, and is the ONLY factory-built Jaguar ever to have featured either of these as a production car !!!
