My parents are getting me (kind of, not really mine but I will use it the most) a car. We decided on this Jaguar, but I want to make sure it's not a rip-off. Let's assume this car is in good condition and will last. Is it a rip-off?

I didn't see a price "/ But still you're parents are buying you a jag :Dace-of-spades93The new models are nice, but the X- and S-Type are such girly cars. If any guy I knew had an X-Type I would make fun of them relentlessly. :P
Have fun paying for the insurancejohnnyblaze92:lol: On a $10k car that wasn't even that expensive to begin with, with moderate power figures? Guess again...
Haha I don't really care if it's a girl car as long as I have something to drive in...is it really that girly?thequietguyIt's not THAT bad... but don't be surprised if you get a few comments :P
You should get the car completely checked out by your mechanic or a company that does pre-purchase inspections before you purchase it.chathurangaHaha that's fine I'm not that self-conscious about what I drive. Would the dealer even allow that?

It's not being sold by a private party individual. Thats not gonna happen. There are companies that come to the dealership and do inspections.[QUOTE="chathuranga"]You should get the car completely checked out by your mechanic or a company that does pre-purchase inspections before you purchase it.Pirate700

There are companies that will come to the dealership and do complete inspections. When I bought my used BMW the dealer said I could hire a company that comes to the dealership or I could take it to the mechanic around the block because it was close by. He wouldn't let me take it to any mechanic I wanted to though. So when you go to do the test drive, ask the dealership if they allow for someone to come in and inspect the car.
The price is rather low for a 2004, especially since it has the bigger of the two available engines, and appears to be in good condition with somewhat low mileage. It's not *suspiciously* low, though, since I'd say the average price for a 2004 X-Type would be around $14,000. You're likely just getting a good deal, but be a little wary about it.Dark__LinkI would be wary of this deal as well. Pay the money to have a good mechanic look it over first -if they do not want to let you take it to one, have them meet you at one
