Guys what's with this I will never be able to afford one rubbish. All you need do is wait, eventually the prices will come within your budget, look at the cars I have now. Yet I remember thinking just like you. So instead os I will never afford , say one day I will have one , I wonder what colour it wll be. bilmacl

Yes the 3.0 Diesel I have,bis the most practical , however I do sometimes wonder how much better the V8 petrol might be.

A man with taste. if you do ever get the chance of a drive in it. I can tell you the Phaeton will not disappoint

Not going to have A8 as already have the Phaeton, and they are very alike, I have decided to have Lexus Ls either the 400 or the 430 depending on whichever one sells first Jaguar XJ again I have two so will sell one and keep the other. then I intend to acquire a 7 series and a S class So Lexus, Jaguar XJ, VW Phaeton, BMW 7 series and Mercedes S class this would leave me having 5 of the best cars in the world. I am almost there.

Apologies to all its not another thread its under CARS FOR SALE headed one must go. bilmac

It has been pointed out to me by private message that the interior looks cream in some photos. I assure all inside is a lovely shade of light grey, Photos on the other thread (One has to go) show this more clearly. Also I am saying the milage is 112K I did think was but I will check after the weekend as I am driving the Jaguar at the moment and I keep the other cars at my sons home. While he lives in the country and has two large barns he is not a farmer and has no livestock In fact he teaches english and history in north west london at the moment If I have made a mistake with the milage put it down as a senior moment a couple of photos

Some other photos on my One must go thread.

Have had the 400 since Wednesday driven more than 300 miles some city traffic but most national roads. I can now understand why the people who have them swear by them.s Unlike my 430 which has Air, this one does not float, it drives more sporty, and feels more like the phaeton or Jag. I did miss the keyless entry and start but thats about it, its hard to believe that this has touch screen sat nav 14 years ago while the phaeton did not have it in 2006. mind you the cd disc is way out of date and keeps telling me I am off road Sorry I do not have more pics at the moment The ones I saved from the Ad do not seem to work now they come out all blurred maybe because DoneDeal have some objection to using them. Some before and after on my 430 This one is harder to price make an offer, again any inspection welcome and delivered to you.

As you can see I now have my gold star, so can offer this for sale without breaching the rules As you can see. this is a lovely car I will leave it on offer here for a week or so. If not sold I will put on Autotrader for 2695 and accept 2500. Members here can have this perfect example low milage car for 2300 delivered to your door any inspection welcome. bilmac

As soon as I have sorted out my gold membership privileges, I will be offering mine, so don't waste your time on anything else just yet. What I will be offering is a genuine car with Low miles (64000) open to any test. and another Genuine car with 112000 miles again open to any test. I am only selling one so whichever goes first, I am keeping the other. bilmac

Yes, that would tend to put you off.

Bit late entering this i know but here's my bit for what it's worth. I don't think we should ban lexuschap/adam from the forum, if this forum is making comments in regard to car trades or even the person. And lets be honest here, if members of the forum are stating that a person is doing illegal practices to vehicles prior to sale then they have the right to defend themselves, you would demand that right if it were you, well i would anyway. We as a forum need to look at things, good and bad objectively, we are not in a court, and sometimes things posted online can be taken further so we also have to be accurate and be able to prove what was alleged. Now please don't think i'm a supporter of lexuschap/adam, i just think that we should be fair and give him an opportunity to reply. Whether or not you believe in what the replies are they do have to right to answer. Just being devils advocate, sorry Have to agree with this. just fair play from us, to someone who possibly, is not fair with others. Its the right thing to do.

Looks a really nice car, but I would not be happy with alpha tyres.

I forgot to include one of the sunroof

Some photos of the 400 after a good cleaning. http://s1156.photobucket.com/user/bilmac27/media/IMG_2373_zps0d980018.jpg.html

I have signed up and when I try to access sell page I get (Apologies, but the page you requested could not be found. Perhaps searching will help.) Mods please what am I doing wrong?

If you have been reading my posts, you will know my plan to have If even for a brief time the top 5 Luxury cars I think they are Lexus LS, Jaguar XJ, Mercedes S class, BMW 7 Series and the VW Phaeton I have gotten sidetracked a little and now find myself, with 2 Lexus, and 2 Jaguar XJ plus the Phaeton I need to sell a Ls and a XJ to make way for the 7 Series and S class and to help finance them. I will be offering the Ls 400 to the forum members here first. perhaps some mod could advise as to the best way to do that. I do not want to break any rules

Mike there is a photo of the engine bay included on post no: 55 this thread. Cost was 1400 euro so far I have seen nothing which would lead me to think it was not good value. bilmac

Its bad enough when it happens and the other driver is reasonable, but to return to find some ***** driver has done damage and gone Even if the damage is slight he or she should have had the decency to leave a note. I have a son in law who cares nothing about cars, it never seems to happens to him, while I who likes to keep my car right, has it happen seemly on a regular basis. So yes I do know how you fell

Can someone tell me what is the latest CD based sat nav disc, and where can I get it? I do have the DVD based latest one from my previous Gs but no good for this car.

Never to old to learn new things, Thanks Mark, DHP you say, seller did say it was the sports model with 17'' Wheels. It does makes a noticeable difference.

http://cars.donedeal.ie/vintagecars-...000mls/6575415 No they most definitely do not drive the same, the Ls is gentle progress,even at 100mph, the Jaguar is Lets Go, even at 50mph and maybe we can get around this bent at 60. lets give it a go. if you want to be noticed get the Jag, seems everyone from small boys to pensioners love the Jaguar and give you the thumbs up. as to the 5 cars yes that is still my intention, but I am getting sidetracked as due to reading this forum I wanted to experience what the fuss was about the Ls 400 so today I bought this

You would be very lucky to get a W12 Phaeton I think there are only 2 of them in the UK and maybe 6 or 7 V8s You could get a V10 Diesel there are a good few of them. I believe that the Phaeton is in the top 5 best saloon cars in the world, I am afraid I lack the education to describe just how good it is, but if you go to VW Vortex forums there are many who can and do Yes that is the wrapped car it turned out better that I had hoped, the photos do not show how the color changes in the different light its a great color. but the British Racing Green of the Jag is just beautiful.
