Nice car. However I'm looking for the long wheel base sedan. The above looks to be of the standard wheel base, sporty XJR variety -- with very nice wheels to boot!

Those cars are hard to find in reasonable condition. Basically a Vanden Plas with XJR Running gear.

I've had the luxury of working on a few and i must say they are brilliant cars. All the luxury and a ton of performance. GL with the search and i will keep my eyes out for one in good condition.

Default Found One

I finally found a low mileage (43K) in Florida in mid-December. I'm having the tensioners done now and a few other things. Love the look of these X308s. I know we'll always be happy with this car.

Thanks to those above who helped with the search.

e21pilot,

What are the details on yours? I just picked up an '02 w/90k miles and love it! Put a thousand miles on it in less than three weeks.

What do you think of yours so far?

Bill

Default Impressions...

Really like the looks and comfort and the driving. So far the only surprise has been a coolant leak. Seems the rubber hoses got cooked in Florida and needed to be replaced. I decided to have them all done so I won't need to worry about this again. That aside, I'm really happy.
