I'm going to be new to the Jaguar fam. Very excited to own one of these babies.
I'm currently shopping for a used F-type. I found a 2018 400 from an old lease - 14 000 KMS! I like buying my cars used!
It's going to be the first time I shed so much money on a car... Can you have a look at this short repair report and let me know if there's anything I should actually avoid? They're repairing everything.
So its a 2018, therefore about 3 years old but hardly used. Trouble with cars like this is the first owners never seem to get round to sorting the car out as what you've got listed should have been dealt with in 2018 or 2019 not 2021 !
They are hardly repairing everything ! For me, the only significant fault is the coolant leak. The oil drain plug seepage doesn't look all that serious, and will be cured with a new one. the others are just cosmetic items. I don't think you're buying a lemon, just a car that needs some use ! If you're unhappy, walk away and try and find another one.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm not much of a mechanic myself. It is relieving to hear these are non-serious issues. Yes, a 3 year old car with 14 000 kms is truly sad. This baby's going to run year long even in the snow now.
They are changing some other stuff that I did not include for the sake of saving you time - Like the battery, updates, etc. Stuff that I know are normal / not severe.
I was mostly worried about that leak and break noises.
