New 06 Sportwagon owner
At a local car auction yesterday...came across an 06 Sportwagon with 112K miles.
Pretty clean car.
First thing I said was " Didn't know Jag made a station wagon "
First thing the wife said..." We are buying it "
Told her there was no way we are buying a foreign car !!
Been driving for 35 years...only rule I have is no foreign cars.
Sooooo..............of course the Jag is now in my driveway.
Driving it home...there is a definite whine coming from the front end.
There is a TON of info on this site, that I need to dig through.
Could be tires, bearings, TC, etc.
Now that the weather is getting nice, I will dig into it.
Only plus side of having the car....actually had 3 people on the way home say the same thing.... " Didn't know Jag ever made a station wagon "
So I'm assuming they are rare....at least in Michigan.
