    No, that was Audi. 04+ X-Types are gold. This is an 05. 03 and older are the ones to worry about.

    Trust me, when I saw all the crap about the older ones, I made damn sure I wasn't buying a problem.

    He's a member now :P He used to have one in the 90's before he sold it for a Stealth. He's just coming back, like I will in a couple years. Hoping on getting an 84 flatty to get a little more crazy on :P

    And yeah, I know it's a Ford. Well, Tata now :P

    Be careful if you plan on wheels for that Jag, they are a PITA for proper wheel fitment.

    Sorry to see the StarQuest go, but at least you got a nice driver to use everyday.

    The A4 was a POS. I'm amazed they gave me what they did for the trade in. As for the Starion, I just couldn't afford it right now and I've got stuff I'd rather have all paid off.

    So, believe it or not, I'm paying less a month for the car note, MUCH less for the insurance per month, and the gas mileage is better than either one. And I get out of alot of debts. All around, given the result, it really couldn't have worked out better.

    And like I said, gimme a couple years, I'll be back in another Starion and do something different.

    Like I said in another thread, why a lousy Ford? I'll never buy a Ford product. So many other nice cars out there that you could have bought. I hope you never have any problems with it. I admit that it looks great as do some of the new Mazdas, but they are still Fords.
