I'll agree the Jags are a beautiful car, but what good is beauty if they
can't get you from point a to point b reliably, I would rather have a
ragged out, 30 year old rust-bucket that will crank every time and get me where
I'm going with no problems than a new luxury car that's gonna break down
everytime I turn around, and hey maybe they've improved their quality some
in the past few years, if so great, but i still wouldn't want one because
their just too expensive for my tastes...
