| Synthetic oil (anyone try it ??) | 24 Nov 2007 15:55 GMT | 6 |
I've always run Castrol in my Jags. I know nothing of the synthetic motor oils. Years ago, I heard bad things about "switching" to synthetics. Perhaps these are urban myths?

| Would this turn you off a car? | 17 Nov 2007 12:24 GMT | 1 |
I might buy a 1998 XK8, and when I did a carfax it came back as a "Corporate fleet lease" vehicle for the first five years, but i'm not sure what that means. It's had a total of four owners. Would thus turn you off a car? It appears to run/drive very well.

| 1989 XJS values | 15 Nov 2007 13:55 GMT | 8 |
I inherited a 1989 XJS coupe from my mother. She was the original owner and the car is perfect with 59000 miles. My question is will this car appreciate, being the last year before Ford bought the company? What would be a realistic price range.
