2002 XJR 100

Good afternoon. I am looking at purchasing a friends XJR 100 and was interested in any comments about the vehicle. He purchased it new and it has been well maintained. It currently has 33,500 miles and it looks to be in perfect condition. I have always admired the car and it would be my first Jaguar. He is offering it to me for $22,500. I believe that to be a very fair price. That being said, I am pretty frugal and do not want a car that could be maintainance money drain. How expensive is routine maintainance? Also, I have three small children and occasionally will have other adults in the rear seats, are they cramped? I think it is a beautiful car! Any comments or thoughts would be appreciated.

no it's a well sized rear seat and very comfortable to drive..seem s like a very good price for such a rare car.. tires can be pricey.. and brakes as well.. but as long as you don't abuse the car the maintenece is ok for such a fast and expensive car.. i wud buy it for 22k very fast and sexy car.

Again, I appreciate the comments. So....should I buy it? I need some reassurance that I am not making a mistake. What do you think I could sell it for in a couple years with say 5O,000 miles?

It is a great looking car!

What is the make-up or technology that makes Brembro brakes, replacement pads and rotors so expensive? Are there any after-market parts that work good and are less costly?
