Pretty much a Mondeo ,having said that id rather have a Jaguar and would pay the price difference.

Theres an awesome car site based only on users feedback,ill try and find it,its the best tool for buying a car ive found.hit your parkers and Yahoo for specs but then use this other site for real life feedback,ill have a look see if i can find it and link you up

Everyone has been in shape,but not everyone is IN shape,its about where your going not where you have been.

tyres are three options, 2055516 £40 upwards, 2254517 £50 upwards, 2254018 £50 upwards, basically the three most common sizes of all. pirelli are recomended by jaguar(on all jaguars) but nothing says you have to put pirellis back on...i wouldnt

he will have been into a tyre shop that told hiim if he didnt put the specific fitment on there it will void his insurance, not strictly true.
