XF and XFR ( X250 ) 2007 - 2015

Feel like this should have a disclaimer on it somewhere.

Correct me, please, if this is in the wrong section. But i stumbled on this earlier. I feel like there should be some information added as to why it's so cheap.

check out this vin number: SAJWA0HE7CMS51751

an XF, 5.0L supercharged with only 10,000 miles for $8500

I tried calling them out of pure curiosity today. I forget that I'm part of a minority of people who work on Sundays. Any ideas why this car would be getting sold so cheaply? I see some of these getting sold this cheap due to "flood damage," but I'd be surprised to see a wholesale car on a Jaguar dealer's website.

Only thing I can think of is flood / salvage.
Usual if it sounds too good to be true?
Also, is it CPO?

Some information added on where you have seen it would be a good idea.

For instance, if it's been on the losing end of an argument with a 40 ton truck then $8500 would be expensive.

I'd guess that it must be a typo for the bait and switch tactic. The parts alone would be worth more than that.

I emailed them and they said the car was listed incorrectly. They said they would fix it on the site shortly.

I knew it was too good to be true. I just didn't believe I'd find any wholesale cars in a jag or rover dealers websight.

I figured they must have epicly failed to add a zero in that price somewhere.
