Although I fill up with V-Power 99RON, which is E5. Luckily, my 14 year old Audi is compatible with E10, if desperate. Yeah at least we're not mandatory over here yet. It's only becoming available this month, but it'll only be a matter of time before 'available' becomes mandatory and then I'm limited to premium. At least I do very little mileage every year.

choffer Posted September 7, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 7, 2021 Anyone ever sold a car to webuyanycar? they’re offering me £4K more than I was offered p/x. Am I going to be rinsed when I get there? (it’s a 2018 Tiguan in good nick, btw. They’re offering £17.5k). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 They'll look over every square inch and deduct anything they can, but if you were fairly accurate when describing any dings, or scuffs, they're usually pretty fair. It's good you have another price so you can walk away if they take the piss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Silvers Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Haven't owned a French car for a long time and have no idea what reliability/quality is like these days, I'm guessing you can't actually get a bad new car anymore. Renault playing a joker here with the android infotainment system, this will be a huge seller for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are excellent cars and very refined. I’d want some kind of warranty on it though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're getting better but 10 years ago Jags were not known for be the most reliable of brands. Also, have a play with the infotainment system, it was a weak point back then too. Beautiful cars to look at and drive though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually go ahead and opt-in on an extended warranty when I get a car also. Will look at that system as well if I decide to go look at it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What engine does have? The good thing about that time was that it was before JLR started making their own engines so it probably has a Ford, tried and tested unit. The 2.2L Diesel is very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time I'd never have considered buying one as the build quality was horrid. I'd imagine they're better now - almost tempted by an F-Pace myself recently but ended up going for the Stelvio. (I don't think any of this adds any value to your research!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
