New to Forum Has questions!
Hi all I am new to the forum and new to Jaguars!! In a few days I will be acquiring a 1991 Xj6 majestic. I currently own a 1999 Mercedes S500, and a 2001 BMW 740 IL. My number 1 concern with this vehicle is maintenance cost. I am only 18 and have lucked out with the other two!! While I am well versed with Mercedes and BMW I am not with Jag so are they easy to work on? What are some common problems. The biggest question of all, is this vehicle gonna be a bottomless money pit that I should just sell lol! Thats what everyone has been telling me but they don't own these so I want to get insight from an owner.

Welcome, the reason why I waited so long for '93 and 94 was to have bought a less problematic model year or more reliable Jaguar XJ40 in a sense . Still, I am having some electrical glitches .
As for mechanical point of view I find the Jaguars (namely late XJ40s ) pretty solid . Money pit ? If maintained well I don't think you would feel upset or regret .
Your Jaguar surely would attract many people over your two Teutonics

At 18, if you can afford to own and run an MB S500 and a BM 740 i with your own money, I wouldn't worry too much about the cost of the Jag.
Well maintained they are as reliable as anything else on the whole, but when things go wrong, parts are of course not cheap.
With three cars your mileage will at least be low, and you will always have a spare car for backup.
