Rover for X type Jaguar. Question Please.

I think the one thing that would make my mind up even if they were both equal in quality and comforts is the £4500.00 versus £1100.00 - Where's the competition...???!

NB. Using figures in Post #5.

Just a comparison based on the two cars I look after/drive - even if you decide they are matched, you can buy two diesel Rovers for the price of 1 diesel Jag

While some items may be service items, I wouldn't consider brake callipers at 60k miles, 4 door lock actuators as service items - they should last much much longer

Agreed previous treatment has a big impact on a second hand car, which is why I would have expected the Jag with a couple of owners and Jag history to be better than the Rover with no history and I'm owner 7 or 8 on it

A few people have corrosion issues on 75's but the posting on here is nowhere close to that on Jag forums for the corrosion problems with Xtypes

Hi All.
First of all 'Thank You' ALL for your answers to my original question, after reading the replies that I have received and doing some digging of my own. I have decided that I will be keeping my Diesel Connie. at 120,000 miles she is purring along, and with my remap she pulls my large caravan with no problems at all. so I may as well keep her. I know for a fact that if I sold her as soon as she pulled away I would miss her. IMAG0136.jpg
