personally i never buy a car with that many miles. the normal wear and tear items, and the not-so-normal ones, will need replacing at some point in your future ownership. that being said, that seems to be a somewhat fair price, butoverpriced if you ask me. doing a quick search on autotrade i found these, which seem to be much better deals:

this one has rear parking assist, dual power seats, heated seats, sunroof and cd changer

Yeah man I'm with 9ball on this one...too many miles! Spend the extra money and get one with a warranty as by the time you do repairs to that car you will end up spending that extra money! I'll research some cars for you!

Well I don't know if you want to drive or travel a little to get a car but me personally...go here to get one...these all have or can get the jag warranty but they are located in Texas. Their cars are like brand new and are really really really good prices!
Texascarsdirect.com
I'd personally just go through texas cars direct as they have great deals their cars are spotless...
They are about 21 hours away from you but you could get a quote on having it shipped to you for under 1000 bucks but you would be getting a way higher quality car than the ones off of autotrader...Or just fly to dallas have them pick you up and drive home...

From ebay

From california....
British racing green but I like it

Autotrader...

Says something about a warranty with low miles and a little more money...

Not much more than what you were planning on spending way less miles and sport model...

Honestly most of the interiors on the earlier models were supposed to be fixed by the dealership...the biggest problem I think people were having was the defrost vent peeling away from the dash. If you find a jag with under 50k miles or less than 4 years old it should have the factory bumper to bumper warranty. If you get a certified jag from a jag dealer chances are it has the 7 year 100k mile bumper to bumper warranty. I have a 2002 sport and haven't had too many problems with it...just normal jaguar quirks that every one has! Overall though the car is excellent! I love my jag and wouldn't trade it for anything but a different one! Your taste preference will chance with whichever one you would want. The sport models have different wheels, color matching bumpers, dynamic stability control, sport suspension...to me overall they look way better than the chromed out ones. To each his own though. Get one with a 3.0 as the gas mileage doesn't really change between the 2 cars enough to make it worth the smaller motor. Not sure what you mean by "easier to drive though?" PM me if you want so I can get back to you on that one faster if you want. Did you look at the texas cars direct page? They have super nice cars on their for really good prices...
