Bought a Jag
Well thought I would say hello
Well bought a jag as always on an impulse
Must admit always fancied a Jaguar
it is a 2004 X Type estate 2l diesel
omg have I bought another bad car (I have no luck with cars at all)
Black smoke = Google = Intercooler pipe Sorted
Power steering leak = Ebay = New pump Sorted
Engine running cold (almost went back on Ebay at this point) = Found the Forum found the answer new thermostat
Need to replace drivers side headlight as bulb clips broken.
But it is growing on me (I think lol)
Well anyway

Welcome Denis11.
Stick with the car if I were you. I find the era of the Jaguars that both you and I own are wonderful to drive and they will give you a great driving experience. I too have had a substantial amount of problems with my X350 in the last year of ownership. But most issues have been frustrating rather than massively costly as I tend to do most of the work myself. Cars of this age do tend to have issues one after the other I'm afraid. But these cars are well worth the effort. For a car that can cope with over 40K miles per year and still easily put newer cars to shame in terms of shear performance is a winner for me every day, even with all the issues I have had.
