About that Jaguar wagon

The owner was very forthcoming and sent me a PDF of repair bills. Two years ago, he spent six grand on the front suspension and a fuel pump. It took my breath away, looking at all the work done (and the price). I passed on it yesterday.

But this morning, I wondered-- Maybe all the work has been done on the car already, no expense spared. Maybe it's perfect now. What do you think?

Our least favorite TV presenter liked it. I didn't realize the wagon version of the X-Type was penned by Ian Callum.

    Not that it matters either way, but Clarkson seems to like anything from Jaguar or Aston Martin.

    Seeing as the search is taking a while anyway, have you looked at another Volvo?

    @Lukas: Yes, Clarkson definitely has a British car bias.

    I think I want to get something different.

    Clarkson has a British car bias... unless he is talking about products from British Leyland or Rover...
