That was a quick response. I deleted the first reponse thinking it may cause targeted offense as opposed to offending the majority. |

Definitely the Jag for me, but I would say that, as I own two of them, and never liked German Cars

Merc
Having looked at both ....
Merc. The interior colour and space and I have always fancied a big Merc. Having said that I wouldn't refuse the Jaguar if I was getting it free of charge but paying the money ...( after Lotto win) I would spend it on the Merc. Chris |

Neither!
Far too pricey, system too tricky & design too modern and impersonal. The first is an actual Tata, the second a cocky German. Neither is genuinely British nor has British class. I stick to my Rovers...

I did originally say the Jag, however after having another look I wouldn't want to own either. Nothing looks worse than an old man driving round in something that looks like that. Willy extensions comes to mind.
There comes a time when you need something of quality but understated.

Alternatively, you could get a nice MG-ZT for everyday use, and with the change get yourself a nice play thing.
