Default 2005 XJ8L - good deal?

Came accross a nice looking 05 LWB (at a Jaguardealer)with 38Kmi, not select edition, but about 1 year left of warranty. Price $20,500 Would you consider this a good deal, or just OK?

It's such a good deal, I would check the Carfax closely. These are going for closer to $30K.

I will do that... The car is not local to me, but I'll be driving over to look at it in the next day or two.

Cheers.

Sounds like a good deal if it's in nice shape. Does it have GPS?

Look at Texascarsdirect.com

The 05 at a dealership is too good of a price for that year/model (at a dealership). Also times are tough right now and you have a lot of bargaining power as a result of that.
I just picked up an 06 with 20k for 21,900.
I'm nw of you a couple of hours in Fl by the way.

Sounds like an excellent deal - especially if it has nav. - good deal even it doesn't
Check the carfax thoroughly - I recently bought an 2006 XJ8L w/35k and paid $28,000 - Granted my car is a year newer with Nav - but I paid $6.5k more and I got a good deal.

I got a 2005 xj8l 35k miles for 21k, and I had it checked out by a jag specialist in Chicago. Does that sound like a deal? Any mb, bmw, lexus had more miles and not in as good of shape as this one.
