Don't buy him a Jag. They're shop hounds. Get him something reliable.

i'm unsure what each and all of the exhilaration approximately unreliability of the Jaguar XK has been approximately, because it fairly is been only as though not greater stable than BMW's M3 yet... i'm able to inform you first hand that the Jaguar XK is a terrific motor vehicle. It seems suited and drives o.k., the chassis is fairly stiff and the journey is comfortable. the interior is severe-high quality and is of robust high quality, and function, technologies and protection (no longer some thing maximum persons think of roughly) is magnificent. The M3 rides harsh and is fairly quickly, besides the shown fact that it seems only like a time-honored BMW 3 sequence, and is uncomfortable and only would not study to Jaguars XK in terms of seems. i does no longer evaluate the Jaguar XK an previous persons motor vehicle by ability of no ability. Like i discussed, it fairly is mad alluring, comfortable and correctly designed. The M3 is only too, yet i think the M3 grow to be designed greater so for the music and function racing than daily use, and maximum persons are not going to even evaluate using it on the music. all of it comes all the way down to style. Excuse the typical bias for the Jaguar XK, yet for sure a number of you have stereotypes of the vehicle without seeing it in guy or woman. even with Jaguar making an investment thousands and thousands into it fairly is aluminum production, making the vehicle as easy-weight as obtainable and sharing very few areas with any automobiles interior the Ford bin, it fairly is obvious a number of you haven't got any clue what your asserting with "Ford bullshit". i could evaluate Jaguar making a come back with this and the XF. i could purchase the Jaguar XK, besides the shown fact that it can be a no longer common determination.

very true the brand new XK is absolutely gorgeous but...
there are a few cheaper alternatives that would be just as good and not as prone to problems.
Beamers are common but still good, Z4 if you feel exotic
i Love the new Merc SLK (the McClaren is even better and sounds awesome)
But the best option for your son, i think, is the wiesman roadster. The running gear of an M3 but with sooo much more style. very simplistic so there should be no problems. 0-60 in 4.9 seconds, 336 bhp. which is quicker than the jag!

You didn't say what he's done to deserve a car. Is he in college right now earning good grades? Does he perform volunteer work assisting the less fortunate? And most importantly, does he have a relationship with God and Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour? Material things don't add up to much over the course of time. After you've shopped yourself silly, and aquired all the riches there are to be had, the only thing that matters is whether you are loved and have shared that love with others. Step outside of your narrow mindedness or singlemindedness that has you concentrated on the next big thing to get. Fall down on your knees and thank God for your salvation, you'll need it, the other stuff can't go with you when you're gone.

What is the scale? A 1/100 would be very nice. Anyway, there are other beautiful toys out there. Why don't you buy him an X-Box? I know it might seem a little too expensive for you, but if you buy it, your son will be able to "drive" a lot of fine cars...

Well, your question sounds made up. I can't think of an adult that would ask the question you put out there.
If your parents do indeed have money and are willing to drop it on you like that, then I suggest a more modest & reliable car that you personally (like with your earned money) can aford insurance and maintenance on. If you really want to impress your parents ask them to put the difference into a sound investment for you like a CD or property.
Don't get too hung up on money ... its only paper :) MAC

Don't buy him a jag. . .he already has a Father who is a JAG OFF! Maybe you should teach him some humility so he actually does something productive in his lifetime. . . . Obviously your priorities are messed up if you think anybody of any worth gives a rats butt that you live near P moron, or Puff doooooocheeebag, or P Blicity hound or whatever that overhyped , undertalented, self serving piece of garbage for a musician is calling his sorry self these days! In reality I suppose you are some punk gangster wannab who is probably sitting there right now with a bottle of jerk lube in one hand and his tiny wee wee in the other. . . Keep dreaming pole smoker!

Well, How old is your son? Do you believe he will understand that Jag is a pricy, high class car?
Maybe you should buy him an 95-99 BMW
