It's because of ULEZ and other cities introducing charges for older diesels.

[@Tonypoolebcfc]

Had the Jag xj 2012 portfolio, absolutely stunning to drive had it 2 yrs never missed a beat

[@davewhittles]

glad to hear auction vids coming back

[@graemew7001]

That's a beautiful car and well worth the money, it's got a great MOT history on it, seems to have been well looked after.

[@ianevans3619]

A really nice car and cheap considering how much it would have cost in 2011 . You can get some good cars that have been snatched back by finance companies, they just want some of their money back . Excellent video as always Lee

[@DriveEspana]

Make sure you regularly regen the diesels, especially if you do short journeys. When our 3 litre twin turbo snapped its crankshaft at 25mph outside Aldi it was a bit of a shock. So was the £16k for a new engine! Car had done about 97k miles. Bit of digging about and research showed this diesel engine design was a clone of a Peugeot design from the '80s or before. At that time I was working for a company that ran 605 diesels and they were forever going pop. ( No they weren't taxis but cars for directors and senior managers) Bearing in mind this poor pedigree, what were JLR thinking of?

[@user-ui5tq6mc9p]

Good video Lee. Lovely cars, the old Jags and well worth the low money…..having said that, my Jags have always been ‘ Classic’….different story of course! Keep it up mate.

[@henrykravitz468]

Beautiful Car, nice colour. It's not a bad price for the car. Great video and content

[@bullseyeant]

Nice motors the Xf, I've got the XF-S. Just had the inlet manifolds done on mine. If yours is an early 08 or 09 reg check all 4 doors in the middle of the paint for micro blisters, a lot of them are coroding from the inside out due to sound deadening getting damp and rotting the doors from the inside.

[@royster3345]

Doors are aluminium.

[@81adamlittle]

Trouble with older diesel is not ulez compliant, and most major citys have that now.

@josephberrie9550 therefore you could get caught in it and not know, until you get a big fine through for not paying.

[@stephenpoessl5464]

What a brilliant looking car.

[@kevingould6725]

Great video. I have the black 60 reg Jag 3.0 TD. Just had a big ouch as the fancy gear knob was stuck up and stuck in D. The garage I use had to collect and removed the gear selector unit . It was sent to a company in Cambridge repaired and refitted. Not cheap and it is a common fault on the jags (check internet).The other issue is rear drive shaft and hub assembly bonded together. Needs at least a 20 tonne press to separate, any less say goodbye to the press. Other than that beautiful cars to drive. Buckets of power and torque.

[@davidstevens1547]

Nice car. Worth the price paid. Glad to hear your going to show your own Jaguar XF. Also when are we going to see the video on your own Maserati which you mentioned some while ago?

[@damianleah6744]

Big cars cost an arm and a leg for parts and repairs. Beautiful cars but it’s like having an expensive mistress.

[@IwillBwaiting]

Hobbies tend to cost money, so do cars;)

[@modmod392]

Is that 3.0litre crank snapper?

[@carukchannel]

it is indeed 😁👍

[@shenidan2023]

Could be loads of electronics are still in drivers footwell where they get soaked by rainwater issues from doors, sills and especially bulkhead. Also wiring loom going through boot gets worn. Expensive business when it goes wrong and unless you know anything about cars, can be an absolute money pit.

[@peterconnor4193]

People probably terrified of maintenance, running cost, and reliability

[@leedstown]

Am amazed someone has finance on a 2011 jag

[@MattBrownbill]

A lot of people have finance to buy second hand cars. I got a load of money back from a car finance company through a PPI claim. They were some of the worst culprits.

[@MrKayzeemoschino]

I like your maserati grandturistmo.

[@ChrisNF]

I’ve seen a couple of Maseratis on his lot, a Granturismo and a Ghibli I think, you never get to see much, absolutely beautiful cars, if you know what your doing they’re amazing and reliable. Thumbs up to this dealer for having taste 👍

[@qc2731]

They’re just a huge liability. I had one, such a gorgeous machine but the fear of it going wrong is always there

[@Williams-rv5yy]

Theres also the fear of walking under a bus. Best to get on with life and not worry about what ifs

[@royster3345]

But did anything go wrong?

[@MegaReddevil71]

Trouble car isn't worth much but cost of spares and repairs are relative to when new

[@davidmackenzie5971]

Because the brand is owned by TATA, from the Indian junk yard if they can find a cheaper part they will put it on the car, engines are failing in Australia, at least when Ford had thebrand they were relatively reliable.

[@leegorman8322]

I think JLR is 50/50 Tata and a Chinese firm, is it Cherry? 🤔Might be Geely.

[@cookingtravelfood329]

Nice one Lee , I thought u might have got me int video walking back from that black A1 Audi 😊 But you only put in the Jag 😂

[@darrenwilson8042]

when I was a lad you could buy a "Morse" Mk 2 Jag for a grand ....................................... it would financially ruin you and take all the welding before you gave up and scrapped it but that was the early 80's. Interestingly my uncle had a FIAT 500 Vignale Gamine he was going to restore - never did and he passed - look them up imagine what money it would make nowadays

[@ianmontgomery7534]

gee in Australia this would be a minimum of $7500 (GPB 3900) but more likely around $12000 (GBP6200) or one in this condition.

[@psych0puppy657]

could always be a finance rejection, i rejected my xc90 to the finance company. car wanted a lot of repairs and the garage closed the day after i got it, finance co took it back, refunded me all my payments plus the deposit and sold the car at auction.

[@marygaleac]

Jeez…..I traded in my ‘12 XF last year at BMW…..£6500………can’t believe prices I’m seeing….

[@tardeliesmagic]

Yeah,spot on with that Jag....even the price is about right.

[@leedstown]

Lee are range rovers still cheap I have not followed the auction prices for 3 months

[@carukchannel]

the decline in price seems to have halted a little

[@paulwilson1555]

2 keys! Where was it hidden, what was the purity like?

[@carukchannel]

Off the chart paul 👍

[@volt8684]

I have known a few friends with these and one guy had from new an 09 and it’s had 2 gearboxes and the auto selector wouldn’t rise. Now done 250k and no other faults. Still other car that is as comfortable and beautiful ride quality. Others have had a plethora of faults and one even scrapped due to uneconomical repair. I’d love one e of these but scared to own. My friend with the 09 also bought himself an older petrol xjr as his retirement present. I ve been in both and I prefer the diesel as an every day driver. Oozes power, comfort and class

Beautiful car,unreal really that two and half bags gets you all that luxury,obviously fingers will be crossed it's not hiding any nasties,cos these can take over your wallet, but looks fine to me.

[@peterh4761]

Because jags and range rovers are not too dependable. The 3.0 diesel is well known for snapping cranks.

[@Seolfor007]

They are hardly an everyday occurrence. I know 4 long term owners of the 3.0d in all its guises. Never had a hint of mechanical trouble with any of them. You get the odd electrical niggle but that's about it if serviced under schedule -the key with any modern car.

[@simonbailey2151]

Aren’t the cranks in the Land Rovers more ‘snappy’ as they’re under a bigger load stress, or do the 3.0 Jag diesels also have the same bad reputation?

[@420somewhereG]

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@Daniel-deMerrivale]

I had a newish XKR some 15 years ago. It was a stupendous looking car, fragile, uncomfortable on long journeys, expensive to run and not very precise when driving. Summed up, Jaguar, great design, over expensive (to buy and run) and that’s it. There are worse cars, but many far, far better.

[@MrNikoid]

Doom blue int it ? .

Defo not doom blue, not sure what the exact colour is but it suits it

With the greatest of respect, if you're going to make unpleasant, unnecessary remarks and criticise the way he speaks, I'd suggest you take some spelling/English lessons first. To and too are different words with different meanings. Perhaps you have to rely on a spell checker that lets you down occasionally.
