Default Buying Jaguar 2008

I am planning to buy a Jaguar XF 2008 3L petrol imported from Japan. It has Done 70Kms. My friends told me its an expensive car to maintain. Well, I love the looks. What all should look for when I am buying?

A non-dealer shop that has experience with Jaguars!

Seriously, find the shop and then take that car to them and have it inspected.

The only problem I see is 2008 was the first year of the XF and there are more problems with the early cars.

Check the dashboard leather very carefully for wrinkling up by the center mount speaker at the base of the windshield.
