After 13 years/20,000 miles of ownership. Sell for reliability?

That car has hardly been used, what a waste!

Just changed the low temp / supercharger circuit radiator and aux radiator on my XKR at 153,000 miles and it's the only thing I've had to do to it in the last 2 years / 20k miles when it had a water pump. These are not some fragile 70s Italian turd.

I suspect hardly using it has done it more harm than good.

I have not made any change and am currently driving the 2010 Jag XK as my daily driver. I've changed all the engine filters, oil, upper front control arm ball joint dust covers, and will be changing the rear upper control arm ball joint covers as well as replacing the sway bar links with new Lemforder sway bar links this or next week. I'm keeping and enjoying the car for the present. Alls good.Thanks everyone for the encouragement.

Still cheaper than a new car!!!

Enjoy!!!

Have only seen 1 XK since I retired full time 2 years ago!

Love the exclusivity...

I'm known as the "JAG GUY" at my bowling league...

Everyone notices it parked up front..

One of the perks living here is the ultra wide parking spaces...at least 30 percent wider than Ohio!

Wow! You must really be in an exclusive community! Yes they only made 27,000 Jags from 2006-2015 and not many out there. But I still see them at least a few a week. Maybe they're all on lifts at the mechanic shops? lol.. Just kidding, but it's nice to be the only guy on the block with a gorgeous car! Enjoy!
