First-time jaguar buyer hoping to get an x250 2.2d. Market in Ireland isn't too wide by the looks of things, trying to stay under 10k
would like to get a decent xf. Under 10k mileage seems high at 180k miles. is this too much for model of car or as long as service history and well
maintained should it be okay?

 

10 K with 180 k that seems insame. My car is worth 6-8 K has only 100K on the odometer

 

I don't think it's ever a good idea to buy above your budget. If your budget is 10k, don't get a luxury car. Something that high mileage is going to have needs that you won't be able to afford to deal with. Better to get a cheap car with a lot less miles.
