XJJag,

Nice car! Please don't take this as criticism, it's a suggestion meant to help:

If I'm a guy reading your ad that knows a little, I say to myself, "if the overheating condition is due only to a $50 fan clutch, why doesn't he fix it and be able to offer the car with no issues? For all I know, it might have a blocked radiator or a bad head gasket".

Your asking price is pushing the envelope, but used car guys are often heared to say "there's an a**hole for every seat". Somebody might see your car and be willing to pay the extra for it...it would be a shame to lose the deal over $50.00. I'd make the car as close to perfect as I could, and use that as justification for the price. Good luck with your sale!

thanks man, I dont mind the criticism. You bring up a good point though. I would've liked to have the overheating issue taken care of but it was nearing the end of the season and I wouldnt have been able to get to it till this April when shes back on the road. Like I honestly love everything about that car. I've had it almost 4 years and I think I'm just bored because I want that XJR6 too...the XJ40 just doesnt quite satisfy my "inner speed freak" needs. Plus its a whole new body style that really nice. I dont know if you read my recent Plan B Post. But if it doesnt sell I'm def going to take your advice and get the overheating problem taken care of. And who knows maybe I'll end up keepin her one more season. I def cant complain about how many ppl stare at it in the summer!!

i wish I lived in a year round warm climate cuz Id just sell my Jeep and actualy be able to keep my baby and get the XJR! But that's never gunna happen in Buffalo. haha.

So I was relooking at your add.  I love this quote, "This vehicle is in immaculate condition for its age."  SOunds very british.  I remember reading the paper once in England, and it said England has the most tornados in the world, for a country of it's size.

I understand where you are coming from man, you want to get the money back for all the customization to your car, but that will never happen.  You love all the stuff you put on your car, but consumers like me don't count that as stuff they should pay for.  You might of paid 1250 for those rims, but that isn't worth a penny extra to soemone buying the car because they may have just wanted the standard rims.  A paid of rims is a paid or rims if they are stock or if they are dubs.

Ultimatly if you want to enjoy all the extra's you put into your car, you should just keep it and enjoy how it looks.  It's a great car but the most it would ever sell for is about 4,500-5,000...especially if it has an overheating problem

By the way are those kenwood speakers inside of the doors.  Because I was trying to see if I could put new speakers in my car without looking aftermarket

Yea I know it was worth a shot and I know what you mean about never getting the money back that ppl put into their cars. I figured someone out their cruisin on ebay mighta been interested enough in making a decent offer but I got none. It'll be back on the road in a month or less so I'll prolly get the overheating issue taken care asap then maybe try selling it locally. A detail shop in downtown Buffalo I used to take the Jag to years ago is like an entire (not to be racist) black area and there were a couple guys there that wanted to buy it back then!! so maybe I'll get lucky. If not the overheating and my dam rear leveling suspension MUST be fixed or switched to shocks and springs!

As far as my four door speakers yea they're 2 pairs of Kenwoods. They were bout 70 bucks a pair and almost 4 years later sound really nice still. Where else do u think your going to get speakers though if not an aftermarket brand like Kenwood or Alpine??

Go aftermarket for speakers.  The OE Jaguar speakers suck.
