This was not my first choice of car, however it was a very good price for 2008 model with below average KM’s.
There is a fear that the Jaguar will spend more time in the shop than on the highway – I too was under this impression, however I am pleased to state that with this S Type I have not experienced such inconvenience. I have owned this car now for 8 months and I have not had any mechanical issues, there are some annoying electrical issues – such as the air conditioning display going blank from time to time.
I have the 3.0l version and find it a little underpowered, other than that the ride is smooth, the cabin is well laid out and has a luxury feel about it with the wood and leather trim. The Jag S Type is lacking in style when compared to the BMW 3 and the Mercedes C class, however not bad if you don’t want to follow the crows.
In Summary – not a bad car for the price 2nd hand, would I buy again – I am sorry but no I would not. nothing really wrong with the car, just not very exciting and there are better options out there.

This was such a fun car, I had this as a second ‘summer fun’ car but found myself using it a lot during the winter too.
In the middle of summer you can take off the roof and all the doors and really head down to the beach, during the winter the hard top, great heater and 4x4 capability makes it a solid choice when snowing outside.
Ok so it is very basic, no electric windows (in mine) no GPS or any of the normal electrics you expect to find, however so much fun you don’t need anything else.
I have to say that the Wrangler is not the best on Gas, so maybe not the best car to take on long road trips. Also the trunk space is very limited, the rear seats are very easy to fold up or even take away, however this then reduces the Wrangler to a 2 seat convertible 4x4.
In summary, I loved this fun little 4x4 and I would buy another one however I would go for the 2010 and newer model as this newer version has dealt with many of the reasons for the car being a 2nd car and not an all-rounder.

I had an Audi A4 2007, I found the handling to be suburb even if a little hard on long journeys. The cabin really is typical German engineering, everything works extremely well.
The running costs of this car were very low, very good on gas especially on highway trips, I had the car serviced at Audi and I never needed anything major doing to it for the 2 years I owned the vehicle.
I did find the ride hard after about 2 hours and if anyone other than small children are in the back seat then the max duration of a comfortable trip diminishes to around 40 mins. So this car is not for a large family. The truck space is good for a convertible, however with the roof down it does half, so remember that on sunny summer days! I did find that the electric roof did seem to take longer to fold down and up during the second year of ownership, however the dealer could not find any fault.
So in summary – if you are looking for a 4 seat convertible car that feels solid and safe then I would recommend the Audi A4, however it will not have the speed and performance of a normal 2 seat convertible nor does it have the space and comfort of a salon! Would I buy another one? – well no, but only as it would not fit my current needs and not due to the car itself.

My Range Rover was a 2010 model; it was an ex demonstrator vehicle that was 6 months old when I took ownership. I had the vehicle for 2 years and loved it, it really was the best car I have owned. The interior of the Range Rover is hard to be beaten; you really are driving in a world of luxury. As my car was an ex demonstrators, it did have a few extra features, however the Range Rover does come with an array of gadgets and electrical features that really makes life behind the wheel very special indeed. The driving position of the Range Rover is superb, and the electric seat adjustments can easily be changed for up to 5 individuals with presets.
The Range Rover is not light on gas!, the performance is wonderful both on the Highway and off. The 4x4 off road handling is surprisingly easy to master with the Ranger Rover making light work of pretty tough terrain. Most of the time was spent on the highway, and was always a pleasure making long road trips a breeze.
So yes the Range Rover is a truly wonderful vehicle, however it is not for the faint hearted as the servicing bills and general cost of ownership is not cheap and will require some serious investment. The gas tank is 100lts, and this will take you about 500-600km’s (if driving responsibly) Servicing is expensive at a Land Rover Dealer, however prices can vary depending on city. Mostly I had issues with electrical faults, these were more annoying than causing real issue, however the cost of repair (outside of warranty) was again very expensive, and sometimes hard to resolve if not an experienced Range Rover mechanic.
So in summary, the Range Rover is by far the best car I have ever owned, it was also the most expensive! The key testimony is – would I ever buy another one, to that the answer is absolutely yes!
