Good afternoon all....the search continues
Test drove a P400 yesterday, superficially it looked lovely....however, I took a charming chap from VIezu along to go over the car, and he unearthed a number of issues that made it a non-starter:
Coolant level was dangerously low - surely any self-respecting dealer would ensure all a car's levels were topped-up while it was on their forecourt?!
Perm faults displayed on their diagnostic laptop (O2 sensors?) which I'm led to believe are likely to be indicative of a failing cat
Sounded like a 25kg plate was sliding about in the boot on roundabouts - which, even to my uneducated ears would seem to indicate a very unhappy diff
So all in all, not the car for me. Would perhaps explain the low price
Nevertheless, all praise to Viezu, excellent service, and in all likelihood, saved me rather a lot of money
Anyho, the search goes on....does anyone have any prior knowledge of SA66TYP?
Service history on Jaguar online system is showing last service in Aug 2021, but the car has been off the road since Oct 2022
Covered less than 9,000 miles
Thoughts?
