I'm a petrol shoe from Finland who likes to wrench cars equally as much as drive them. I've got no brand loyalty by any means but my current X351 happens to be my second Jaguar already. The first was a MY11 XFS with 75th anniversary compliments, nice car but some problems with corrosion. My current ride is MY12 XJ 3.0D Supersport SWB. It's sold originally in Netherlands and imported to Finland with 160k km. actually, I don't think they have sold any units in Finland as new. Well kept car and I consider it almost comparable to new from inside out but just a fraction of new price. We do have a lot of import tax in our cars (20-50% depending on pollution level, meaning fuel consumption), so the new price for this car in Finland would have been something like 170k$, which is grazy. XJ serves as a daily for me through out the year (not the best grip in the winter...). I do have a CLS 55 for pretty summer days to compliment and to hell me getting busy with these toys.
I tend to improve (IMO) some aspects of my cars that factory has forgotten or they have not understood to do The car has got some updates already and some are in the queue. This is a great platform to have sporty luxury!

Welcome to the forums Pacer,
I can understand why they didn't sell new in Finland!
