Your joking about the 348...that is LUSH...you need to drive and more importantly listen ...oh and look at everyones jaws or draws drop when i roll up
then you get out and the whole look is spoilt

seriously phil, another car? Have you been taking the chippendale happy pills?

It says to me, "i'm middle aged, like the finer things in life but i'm not too old not to get at thrill out of driving".

As for the hot, yes but only when a posh bit of totties behind the wheel !

Has nobody mentioned the fact that it clearly says 'I have a Jaguar V8, therefore I will break down relentlessly and require new engines at set intervals'.. heard some real horror stories with them.

Says to me "I'm pushing towards the twilight of my life; my wife has got a bit lardy and unattractive so I bought a car that I remember in the 1960's was guaranteed to get you sex. However, I have acne.".

I like them though and think they're good value when you consider the alternatives

Speaking of which.... if you've got to buy your missus a car, how about an 03 plate Volvo C70 2.4 GT [240bhp] Convertible in dark met blue, blue hood, leather, air con, wind deflector etc. etc. with only 23k miles?

And yes, once again this IS a for sale ad

you think so? i like the look of them but to b honest i think they are a car to be a poser in.they arent that fast for the money at all! if you dont mind rolling around fairly slow so every1 can see you with ya gucci sunglasses then its a fine car.

yawn!!! lets all dig at each other for what we drive! i love lots of cars,always have,whether its a ferrari 328 or even a kitted up suzuki cappacino. i work in the car industry so see alsorts and respect the cars for the type of car they are. the jag like a bentley,chrysler 300c is a posing car and not a proper sports/supercar.im not saying its not quick but if you want a fast car you buy one! boschman already did that with the ferrari.

Nil the xkr/xjr are incredibaly fast What are you comparing them with?

How can you say....373bhp 400ft/lb torque...0-60 in 5.2secs and a limited 155mph...is slow....(according to Jag the car could hit 170mph + without the limiter)
