Sorry, Newbee here. I am debating between a CPO 20127 F-Type R (15K miles-$60K) and a Pre-Owned non-CPO 2017 S-Type R (27K miles-$59K). These are both “sticker prices” and not what I would actually pay. Thoughts on CPO vs Non-CPO and what would be reasonable offers for each of the cars above. Thanks!

 

Both are 2017’s. Sorry for typo.

 

Are you interested in both of them equally? If they have a similar option spec, I see the one with 15k & CPO as a good bit better value proposition. The CPO cert alone is worth $1.5/$2k to many buyers, plus 45% lower mileage.

For offers, I would say something like $56.5k for the CPO, or $53k for the non CPO. The non CPO seller may be more willing to budge on the price though.

 

You need to compare the options that are on each car. Get a full, detailed options list for each car to then understand the pricing.

 

Too low mileage might be problematic if it also means that oil change was done once in 5 years.

 

You don't know that. Some change oil every spring or every 2 years regardless. Only receipts can verify.

 

The Jag service record will show whether oil changes were performed.
I would have thought that in order to qualify for CPO status there should be a record.
Often the work done to bring it to CPO standard can be quite significant including tires, brakes etc.
The other big advantage of CPO is your ability to buy an extended warranty for up to 2 additional years.
So, unless there some package missing that you feel is vitally important, it seems like a no-brainer to me.
Both cars are probably overpriced by about $6K, but you may not get a much better price based off of my recent experience.

 

He did say "if", not that it hadn't been done ....

 

Whoops, reading to fast without glasses, a bitch to get old.

 

The dealer should be willing to give you the CPO report showing what was done to bring the car up to CPO status.

 

If you negotiate the price where the difference is around $3-4k the CPO is the way to go and you have the added option of an extended warranty. Both are priced high and I would try a 10% reduction in price IMHO.
When I bought my CPO from Glen Cove Jaguar in August 2019 they replaced: two rear tires, rear brake pads and rotors, a battery, two windshield wipers and renewed the brake fluid all due to being a CPO.

It will only be on record if a Jaguar dealership does the service.

 

In the UK it's possible to get the OSH updated when serviced elsewhere by sending the service details to Jaguar Customer Services - I've had two updated that way. Other markets may vary, of course.
