I have a feeling in 5 years the price for a XJ6 in good condition will be over 10 grand. They are not making anymore and the cost to restore far outweighs the value. Also guys are cutting them up and doing stupid **** to them. So it seems like a good investment plus my fiance can drive it.
I was really more interested in a Mark 9 or a Rolls S1 but I would be dumping 35 grand into something that could be expensive to repair down the road and even go down in value further. Something cheaper that will keep it's value and I can enjoy with my family makes more sense now I guess.  |
Jags are nice but my family's history with them has never been good. much the same with rangerover's, There all good up until around 70K miles than the problems come around. My uncle's XK8 needed a new engine at 60K miles and be babied that thing. I hear they have gotten better since ford took them over.
