Hello all im new to the jaguar never owned one befor and have a couple of questions. Thinking of purchasing a 2007 xk coupe but has 119k on the odometer. What do i have to out look for, as far as problems and repairs, before i buy. Its a beautiful black and dealership want 12k for that beauty. Runs really good but 119k miles scares me.
thanks in advance

Welcome.

Have a good read of the "stickies" at the top of the XK (X150) Tech Section.

That should give you a good heads up.

Servicing, as required and ON time will be the main look outs for me.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forum M.orlando,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I wouldn't worry too much about the mileage. Daily driver Jaguars are usually more reliable than garage queens. You need to carefully consider who will be doing maintenance and repairs on the vehicle. Specialist expertise can be expensive. At 119K miles, it should have been serviced on a TIME basis and that is every 12 MONTHS. Look for and question any gaps in the service history.

Follow this link
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk-xkr-x150-33/ to the X150 forum for help, advice and information. You will find threads there on exactly this topic.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
