Does anyone have any advice on Jaguar XJs? Are they reliable over 100K miles? I have to drive to work now and my main daily isn't the most practical...

Nice cars thought about doing similar myself. Only word of warning is they will be Euro 5 not Euro 6.Only an issue if you require to work in acity with additional charges.

Ah, that’s a good point. I’m mainly driving around the north, and if I’m going into a city with additional charges I’ve always got the i8.
What’s stopped you going for them? For £10K they seem a really good proposition?

Currently I have to sell my dog business before I can look at getting a daily driver jag. Whilst 3.0D are sub £10k, to get a Euro 6 they are a lot more. The real bargains seem to be early X350 XJ 4.2 which are of course OK in cities as petrol.

Good point. So not ULEZ compliant presumably?

Just bought one myself and found very little negative opinion on them.

I think there are one or two faults or maintenance tasks that crop up around 100k miles but that's it. If they've been done then no problem.
