I've been driving Jags for 30+ years.
My absolute faves are the "Series III" '85, 86, '87 (?)

My mechanic used to sit in front of me in Church (suble irony)
Being a person who worked on ALL models, he told me his "favorite",
and the "easiest" to work on were those models/years.
Just passing on information here.

I would like to have another one! IMO they have the best
styling.....Gorgeous!
Where IS this car located ;^ )

ANY older car might "nickel & dime" you for a while, but we're talking
older, high quality, Jags.... not American assembly line trash.

Just another $.02

You can't get there from where you are. <g>

It hurts less to throw money at a vehicle you enjoy driving or riding.
