I think I could pick one of these up for under $300.


Seriously though, I just realized that it had to be under $300. Anyhow, this WILL be my next car. I've never driven a smoother car than a Jag. Can't beat the stares you get when your driving one thats on chrome 20's.

Those things are a reliability nightmare. My uncle had an XKR for himself and an XJ8 for my aunt...horrible. He sold them both within 2 years of ownership because he was tired of going back every 3-weeks for major warranty repairs.

He has Audi's now h:

Bushing kit FTW. It's amazing how much of a difference it makes, even if you happen to be using stock sways, etc.

Especially on an older car like that, regardless of mileage. Great investment. I did the Civic's a month ago.

This for my 4 Yr old. It's a close match to the seats in my GTI.



I get most of the tax refund due to having a kid. So he shares in the spoils.

I've heard they work wonders from several people. My stock bushings are scary too, the ones in the front LCA's look about ready to fall out in tiny pieces and the rest aren't far behind. It feels pretty loose and shitty in general. But yeah, it's the next thing.

That's great. I love that Recaro is making kids seats too!

Honda bushings > BMW bushings

It was a pain the ass to do mine. BMW supplied such shitty bushings and shocks/struts that only lasts around 40K miles.
