would you buy a repaired x351 ?
I'm still thinking about buying a x351.
Now I found a nice V6,AWD, which has been repaired by jaguar as it suffered a front crash.
How good are jaguar repairs ? Like new or just good enough to survive warranty ?
Would you buy such a car ?

If the repairs were done by a Jaguar Aluminium body repair authorized body shop then I would drive it and if it drove with a solid feel and drove straight I would consider buying.

This is from Jaguar Canada but the Jaguar repair standards on the aluminium bodied models are the same elsewhere:

If it wasn't done by an authorised centre I wouldn't touch it.

I completely agree with Graham on that statement. Beyond that, I'd be interested to know how much of a price advantage there is to purchasing this particular repaired X351 as opposed to one which has suffered no damage. If the car is titled as "rebuilt" or "salvage", it will always have a lower value, regardless of how good the repairs are.
