If it were my money, I'd be looking at a Merc instead, probably a CLK55 or similar. Far better drive, better engine, more grunt, won't make you look 75 when driving it
Not known for their reliability, but certainly not going to be any worse than a Jag of that era for sure! My Mum runs a 3.2 X308 which is very wafty, and Rich from here had the equivalent engine in an XKR which was nice enough to waft around in but felt lacking in personality to me.
The car, not Rich.
