My 02 x type was starting to cost me money and was getting undependable. After all I did to it I got in it yesterday morning and the battery died (2 years old) nothing was left on or anything like that. i decided at that moment that was the last straw. I traded it in for almost nothing and got a Nissan Rouge. I did enjoy the first 4 years of driving it but this year it was a different car.

I want to thank all you people for all your help and say bye..

When the bills get too high, it's time to bale out.

Jaguars have a habit of calling you back so enjoy the Nissan for the moment.

Always enjoyed reading your posts.

Best of luck,

 

louvit, like GGG said, jags have a way of calling you back. Keep your eye out for a used XF or XJ. They can be had for cheap (relatively speaking). Even the new XE's are going at a nice price. I know I am contemplating an XE for the wife right now.

Remember, while you may not have a jag, you are still always welcome here.

 

there is a place in my heart for them even though I am really a muscle car guy. I have my 93 Z/28 that is loud and fast..lol. and thanks Larry, I know I've been annoying at times....As far as that oil pan crack it looked like someone jacked it up from the pan and cracked it. I used blue Magic Quick Steel and it worked great. Well at least for 2 weeks, I'll never know how long it'll hold....haha. Just a shame I got like 1300 for the car.

 

After test drive an X-Type back in 2009 I was hooked, bought an Gold 03. Love it every moment either driving it or just look at it, but crashed it few years later, bought another 03 some guy jump out in front of it, still can be fix but insurance total it. The third one was 04 Burgundy I bought it from the auction, after put in the labor of love it's look ran beautiful, but because of my ignorance, the head gaskets were broken, engine got full of water, still can't get it run, can't afford to put it in the dealer, now I drove a clunker 01 Ford Focus while I try to fix the Kitty.and try to find another X-Type. Now X-Type is not just a car, It's become my toy of old age until I can't turn the wrench any more.
