Hi all - great site!
I used the site before I bought - so helpful!!!! - ty all.
I´m Stephen - just returned from abroad and had to get myself a Jag again. Of course champagne taste on a semi-retired beer budget.
After searching found myself something that met my hearts desire and my bank managers budget.
I bought a 2004 2.5S with the Sat Nav console, climate and electric seats. 87000 miles - great MOT history - sills done for last MOT - its only ever fail - so looks like it was looked after - quite a lot of service stamps at JAG.
Unusual colour - Ultraviolet (JJF)- but I really like it - gets lots of compliments.
One question - although it has the 2004 (54 plate) - it has the older steering wheel controls - is this pre-facelift then?
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums. Most of my cars have been various shades of blue and I do like that one.
The VIN will tell you more about the specification than the registration. A "54 Plate" was registered between September 2004 and the end of February 2005 but gives no indication of how long the vehicle had been in the dealership prior to that.
