Dear all,

I am contemplating of getting a used jaguar XJ8 (3.2)(V 8) year 2000. I was advised to get the XJ6 (3.0) (V6) year 2003. I would appreciate if someone can advise which is a better car to keep and to maintain. I was told that the XJ8 has more mechanical parts and the newer XJ6 has more electrical components that can be costly to be replaced as well.

Thank you.

When considering any Jaguar, service history is crucial. It should be complete with no unexplained gaps.
