Default Advice needed

Looking for a car for my wife, and came across a 2011 xf premium with 129k There asking 4000 and said all it needs are new struts. Having never owned a jaguire before is this a good price? Also is this model fairly reliable? Anything else I should look for when I'm inspecting it?

Unless you can DIY the repairs I would not get the car.

^^^ this.. just check the price on those struts

It should have the adjustable suspension.

Fronts 553.86 EACH 1107.72
Rear 397.12 EACH = 794.24
Total 1588,48 Parts only

Paying about 40% of the cost in parts alone, doe not seem like a good deal at all now

Avd that is hoping the ride height sensors are ok (approx 200 each for 4) and the moduel checks out (300)

>2011 xf premium with 129k
Too old and too many miles.
Unless you can find a local shop that can work on it.
Is there an independent shop that services Land Rovers? Go talk to them about working on a Jaguar, and describe the car uv found
