NightSpirit Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 What a load of crap are they all that shite?The interior is dated (I know it's old) and the power isn't 'all that' 321hp? doubt it.The one I viewed was up at 7k on a 96...the clutch was gone, the seats were well worn, things rattled, the accelerator was stuck....it held the road well though and made a nice noise On the whole...not impressed. Need to view a few more first methinks but it doesn't bode well.On the flip side I drove a Lexus GS300 Sport and that was AWESOME lol...great VIP car....and the biggest shock of the day?I DROVE A JAGUAR S-TYPE and loved it am I getting old? what a superb car..leather and electric everything very very nice indeed.So the shortlist is GS300 Sport, Jag S-Type!!!! and the M3 I'm giving a second chance to Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey Jay Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Jaguar doesn't always mean old, but wouldn't catch me driving one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paul w Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Its a german pile of poo thats been ragged to buggery since 1996! I'm not surprised it was rough,the japs know how to build cars and keep the quality up as they are such a demanding nation! Stay jap you wont regret it i reckon. I must admit i'm not a fan of german cars in general. Just my views though,you may just've had a bit of a dog for the first test drive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NightSpirit Posted April 7, 2007 Author Share Posted April 7, 2007 was going to post on the m3 forum asking the above question lol Very disappointed, you get fuck all for your money.Just looking at the Jags on Autotrader....5k for a 2000 with low mileage? bargain...it even comes with a pipe and slippers....BONUS!

paul w Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Nowt wrong with a pipe and slippers! Bet it costs half what the M3 would to insure too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NightSpirit Posted April 7, 2007 Author Share Posted April 7, 2007 I think the Jag in black with black leather (and walnut dash) is pretty nice..what's wrong with me? lolWhen I was 16 and the Evo 4 had just come out..I thought...I got to get me one of those one day. Now I can buy one, but prefer the Jag or Lexus. It's like when you're young and think that drinking tea and coffee is gay and you'll never do it...here I am drinking a nice cup of Earl Grey lol.Glad I've got the nutter ep sat on the drive to keep me young Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 the EP will keep you young alright The jag does sound good though for what it is, plus i heard good stuff about jags 2nite actually Quote Link to post Share on other sites
