I'm surprised this car is still available, right year, right color, VDP, low mileage (under 50K), reasonable asking price.

Hmm, one negative, and one neutral, the rest positive................How's that saying go, "You can please some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time".

As an avid eBay user anything below 99 sets off bells. That one negative on an expensive vehicle is enough for me unless one has a 1,000+ sales.

That is an amazing find, only 28K miles, and just 8K miles in the last 10 years.

Not my favorite color, to be negative I think "Roman Bronze Pearl" could be translated to mean "Brown".

Only one key, not even a valet key, that's not good.

Excellent overall condition though, it is a base car, and will need timing chain tensioners, and thermostat housing, and probably the usual age related bushings etc. but still a virtually new luxury car for very little money.

I've had dealings w/ that guy, he always finds gems more XJRs than NAs.
