WHY IS THIS JAGUAR XF SO CHEAP ?

Hi all I am back at the auctions this month looking for stock and in this short clip I show you a Jaguar XF which is arguably one of the cheapest I have seen at auction. The question is why ???

Never cease to amaze me how companies like JLR can fail to iron out these mechanical problems pre production. On a premium car like that it's inexcusable.

More vids like this please, i find it very interesting.

High Peak Autos had a We Buy Any Car valuation of £60 for a slightly broken 59-plate XF a few months back. It had a couple things wrong with it, but it was not as terminal as this one.

Mental. Shows how disposable new cars have become. Worthless after 8 years.

My friend saw a 73 Toyota Corolla for sale 1980 with 48k garaged and used by a nurse on nights hardly seen the light of day and virtually no rust and bought it ! Everyone assumed it was a rust bucket and hadn't bothered to look.

could have been a reasonable buy for a good DIY mechanic who doesn't count their own labour and enjoys repairing their own vehicles....not many of us around nowadays !

If it’s the well known Ingenium engine?
Stay well clear in my opinion.
The majority of cases, they fail.

The reality with any JLR product there's all ways a repair bill on the horizon. I had a Range Rover for years it was always pot luck when you drove it that the dashboard wasn't going to light up with something or other. I drive a Mercedes now and it's a nice to go out and not see any lights on the dash.

Hope you are recovering well. Keep up the great videos Lee.

Jaguars always depreciate! When my mum worked at Paramount Jaguar in the early '90s, her catch-phrase was 'there's no such thing as a cheap Jaguar.' And this was back when 5-year-old XJ40s part-ex'd could be bought for around £5, 000. It's still pretty much the case today.

Hi Lee, , Glad to see you're Looking better, , Keep em coming, ,

[KKTR]

It was manual -a company does a conversion to the timing chain to bring it up to the very latest spec. I can’t remember how much it is but it’s definitely thousands and thousands.

A work collegue of mine has an ingenium XE. His engine had issues and didn't sound anywhere near as bad as that, but it still cost him £4000 for repairs.

[andrewhumphreys]

Even to someone who knows nothing about cars I wouldn’t go near it from the sound!!

[chrism]

WHY IS THIS JAGUAR XF SO CHEAP ? Because they are shite

[alanhenderson]

Sounds like something from the industrial revolution.

[JRGRAY-]

Looking forward to seeing your new video's 👍🏾

[robertanderson]

With a rattle from the chain like that the cam shaft will need changed with cams and followers thats more than its worth to fix unless you have a spare engine

[simonstanyer]

Amazed they set a reserve at over £2k. Even at that you are correct it is not viable for a legitimate trader so its value is as a breaker less the engine.

surprised you didnt slip a cheeky sponsorship in this video pal x
