Default I finally got my Jaguar

It's your basic 2018 XJ R-Sport, AWD, Fuji White w/black interior. 35 miles on the odometer at delivery, advertised as new, but they went over it today and sold it as a CPO. The in service date was 2/28/2018, so my warranty expires 2/28/2024 or 100,000 miles - whichever comes first. I lost my first complimentary service, will only get four. I suggested I could still get it as late as March 28 as there is a one month grace period, but he didn't think the oil would be changed with that mileage - 260 miles now. Also, the XJ Protection package was on the sticker, but no rubber trunk liner was in the trunk. I assumed it was in a white box I saw in the trunk, but now that I'm home I see that held the cargo organizer. I've got the rubber and carpeted interior mats. I will address the trunk mat tomorrow. I have 6 Jaguar dealers nearby in MD and N VA, but no one has a 2018 XJ, hence the travel. A month ago I couldn't get the price any lower than $64,900. I asked for a $26,000 discount about a week ago and got very, very close....I paid $55,480. At this point, I'm very happy. Hopefully no one bursts my bubble.

Ron, enjoy the ride. I love my XJ (2012 with the 5.0L RWD). Have had it for almost 4 years now and still love driving it. If you ever need help with anything on the car, let me know. I am south of you in California, MD.

I simply focused on 2018 models and checked every dealer I could within at least 250 miles for their discounts on my year and model. I then politely asked the dealer with the car I wanted if he/she would match the discount that dealer (x) was offering. It took 5-6 weeks,but it happened for me.
