Hello,

I currently libe in Germany and ​​​recently won a bid off a Jaguar S-type from a junkyard. It wouldn't pass inspection for various reasons, bid $650, put about $900 into it, between EPB module, rotors, pads, both toe rods and an O2 sensor and got it to pass. There are a few things still left to do but honestly love this car.

It's an EU Spec, the paperwork says 2004, but when I run the vin it says 2005. Has about 168000 miles on it, 3.0L V6 engine.

Gonna be asking for a lot of advice on here.

Hello,
Congratulations on your new S-type Jaguar!
Which you have the princely sum or around $1500 sunk in for a car that drives quite well!
Good job!

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Welcome to the Forums.

WELL DONE.

These cars are so often "junked" for small things that people fail to understand.

Simple, they are, and you will enjoy that thing for years to come.

Clean Fuel
Clean Fluids, ALL fluids.
Clean Air
Thats OZ for "It will run forever".
