The wear and tear issue also starting to kicking in and this car is not cheap to maintain in Singapore. The parts and labour cost is too much here if compare to other make like BMW or Merc.
The $5K is for the body only. In Singapore we can get back the rebate for the tax we paid for car within 10 years so I can get back around 60K for the so call paper value for the car and 5K for the body. The dealer can choose to scrap the car or export it to other country after buying my car.

Maintainance - Maintainance is quite high here in Singapore in term of parts and labours and brand (Jaguar) compare to other make like BMW and Merc. May need to spend 20K for engine and transimission if wanted to drive the car for another few years.
We can take back the tax rebate for the car within 10 years. 5K is only for the body offer by the dealer to scrap or export.

Hi All, Im looking into getting my very first Jaguar and I am eyeing a used XJL. However due to the numerous engine options, may I know how can I verify if its the 385HP, 470HP or the 510HP version ? VIN: SAJAC28R4CMV38418
Also is this the XJ L version ?

I was shopping around for something similar last year, when I bought mine and I can tell you $33k is a bit much (if you're in the US - in other countries this might actually be a great deal for a SuperSport), especially with some of the defects you mentioned and the age of the car. I personally feel it's more in the $28k range. Have you checked the NADA value? NADA Guide
Again this is my personal opinion and others on this forum might disagree.

The lack of a nationwide equivalent to KBB, NADA, etc., makes it more difficult to both buy or sell a car, when you are from the USA, and are used to being able to go online, put in the year, specs, etc., and determine what the value of the car is. When I put a car up for sell in the Philippines, I went to a major website with many cars for sale. I found around 35 cars the same as mine for sale, put it into an Excel spreadsheet, and had it calculate the average and mean asking price. Still, most people offered less than what I was asking. The problem is that people ask for more than they actually expect to get. I knew that, and thought going with the median asking price would be good, but I guess I was wrong.
Another problem, is that people put for sale signs on their cars, but don't put the price. Heck, even at used car dealerships, most don't put prices on the cars. That applies to both here and in the Philippines. Makes car shopping a real pain in the ***.
