The thing that amazes me the most is the braking. 108 feet from a car that weighs well over 2 tons? Wow.

Rather, I'd convince him for an XF over a S-class. He wants a new S-class because all his buddies drive S'es or 7's. True, the S and XF-R are different cars, but I'm not aiming to find a replacement S550.

The real issue with pretty much all modern jags is that the resale is rubbish

So take advantage of that and get something like a slightly used XJR. Competes directly with the S-Class and 7-Series.

I wish Americans would just say Jag. Something about hearing the way that guy says Jaguar is irritating. Since I refuse to pronounce it the brit way, I just stick to Jag images/smilies/tongue.gif

Disregard that. I've heard that Jaguar gives excellent service now.
