Did you ask them if they inadvertently added the 1? It must be the infusion of Duck Donuts to create a sugar induced euphoric state. I was just there last week in Mebane.

I sent a text asking if the tensioners had been done & the mileage, here's what ensued. Safe to say we can chalk this one up to delusion rather than resurgence lol.

No you missed the prior texts, the guy was all smug like he had an exclusive gem w/ in-depth knowledge(which he clearly didn't), I tend to shut smug down promptly in life lol.

I figured there must had been some "conversation" happening...but you still hold back too much... If I hadn't needed to get to another job site a couple weeks ago when I was in Sneads Ferry, I'd given you a ring...maybe next time.

My favorite line from him was "well these cars ain't for everyone",,,, you don't say lol.

Yeah Sneads Ferry is a rock toss from me, next time indeed !

My brother is literally blocks away from a prestine Craigs List XJR yet he nor I can get the poster to respond. The color & mileage is exactly what I'm hunting for my son's 16th birthday.

Wonder why people list cars then never respond to inquiries ?!

I removed the link as to limit looks lol.

A nice, 21 year-old, low mileage 1998 VDP sold for $12,500.

Doesn't mention tensioners being done, or any of the other time related issues.

Good to see there are low mileage gems out there fetching the money and love they deserve.

Since smug was mentioned I will throw in my experience with this 55k mile XJ40 that cought my eye.

https://chicago.craigslist.org/nch/p...927687257.html

It definitely needs work and I texted the seller asking what he would take for the whole car. He replied either $3k or $3,500. I replied that we are too far off and if he changes his mind to let me know. His response - "sounds like you want a Jaguar for Miata money." This was several months ago and he just relisted the car. I'd pay maybe fifteen hundred for it to leave room for the repairs. I wonder how thinks he'll find a buyer just for the engine and trans when these powertrains are virtually bulletproof.
