CARS

[CANV EFM]

i want a new car.. do i go for something 1 year old that isnt german thereby securing excellent value on something that is fully loaded.. or do i just get in the Q for an X5 or XC90 or something and hopefully pick it up before i need an eyetest to keep my license

[Uncle Urchin]

get the new jaguar super V8...fully loaded..three months wait and worth every minute of it....

 

the X5 you can have for weekends....

 

oh...yeah...you'll need a drop head of some sort as well for posing on sunny days....I'd rcommend an old V12 E type....very fashionable at the mo....make sure its got wires...

 

and...

 

you've just done in around 175k.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

E type what a car!! tho i think i'd prefer the hardtop in that.. i think im coming to the end of the road with jeeps, if you excuse the pun.. i want something that can go round corners the jag has potential but there has always been something about em i havn't liked but i cant put my finger on it.. mind you they are just jumped up fords now on a mondeo chassis ;-)..

saw one of those streetkas yesterday great birds car..

[Urchino]

I recommend one with no wheels and suspended on Bricks, They're all the rage down here <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[pabird]

And Ill bet you meant rage?

Evens ?

[pabird]

Not unusual U-U but must disagree

No boot in the new Jag (golf clubs,ground sheet etc etc) and very over rated

[CANV EFM]

a mate of mine was zooming around in puegeot 406 coupe, top of the range electric everything 3.0l v6.. that was impressive and i normally hate peugeots

[pabird]

Yep I think they have moved on and particular on the inside but still too heavy for me

 

I know your off the 4 x 4 range but I do like the new Beamer 4 x 4 shaded windows etc

 

I just think the Jag is living on its name

[CANV EFM]

the big beemer jeeps are fantastic cars i think the new volvo jeep is even better but im going for a car low, 2 door, 4 seats, automatic, plenty of bhp.. audi have a new sporty A4 out i think but again its back to waiting for ages..

A few months ago i did work expierence and my boss there had a Jag which he'd bought a few years earlier,he made me swear to him i'd never every buy a jag,he say's he's had so much trouble with it!When he bought his Jag one of the executives bought a Lexus and thats a very nice car!

[CANV EFM]

lexus.. very nice.. excellent quality but lacking the charisma of the german marques.. they seem to be what they are very expensive toyotas or hondas?

[Laz]

Helski, it's for sale as it happens. I'm getting a new one.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

So you're getting a new one - why sell the old one? Just dump it somewhere. It's not like you need the cash!!

 

 

[Laz]

Too true!

[ESG]

e-Types

 

a bugger if going over a series of hills

 

ala-San francisco

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Pah! Trains' cost a good million even second hand.

 

Get yourself a limo!

[Stu B]

I don't understand why Canv wants to lower himself to the level of cars..i thought he used the 747,and that's MUCH better!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Bugger to park though.

[Tall n Cool]

Not when you own Heathrow like Canv!!
