Want a Jag XJ220? The time is NOW!
 
:shock:

this surprised me... there is a XJ220 being sold in Sao Paulo, Brazil's richest city

I didn't even know that there were this kind of Jag's here in South America...

$700K?

Not a chance, they'd be lucky to get $250-$300K for that car.

Still a nice car, but there just isn't the kind of demand to make it a $700K car.

your estimated price seems to be more logical
700K sounds wayy too much

LotusGT1 04-03-2005 05:30 AM

I've seen XJ220's sell on eBay for around $200k....

$700k is ridiculous...

Joel 04-03-2005 07:29 AM

An XJ220 sold at a classic car auction in the UK in February this year for £66k. Even with the Dollar at its weakest for years that's still only $124k.

Even going through prestige showrooms, and being previously owned by Sir Elton John, that car fetched a little over £110k. And it had extremely low milage :|

KramRS2 04-03-2005 08:23 PM

There is tax issues here. (100% tax + shipping)
An Audi A4 b7 3.0 is sale for US$94thousand
A Gallardo for US$450thousand

so...

but they ask only US$165thousand for this Jag

gbg 04-03-2005 08:42 PM

lol, I asked you guys about the price because I really have no idea how much this machine costs... I based my 700 thousand dollar price on the information that fast-autos.net gives here: http://www.fast-autos.net/jaguar/jaguarxj220.html

KramRS2, they are asking only 165 K for the xj220? unbeliveable cheap if you ask me, this is the price of a 99 F355...

by the way, where have those golden rims came from?

The XJ220 is probably at its lowest point in terms of value, it is not a classic yet, and no one appreciates it right now, because they are ludicrously expensive to maintain and don't really have any great draws. No classic sound, no V12, horrible brakes, and an uninspired interior all conspire to keep the price very low.

crayzayjay 04-04-2005 05:57 AM

Bah... i've never been a big fan of XJ220's. I'd rather save up the extra and get a CGT... This month's evo reported that a yellow CGT was offered in the trade for £250k and didn't get any takers.... prices are coming down... now just a further £220k drop and i'll be able to get one! :lol:

Correct. :D

The only hypercar doing well is the Enzo, still trading at above £500k .... a healthy £80k profit 8)

crayzayjay 04-04-2005 08:36 AM

Yep. The exclusivity of the Enzo undoubtedly helps.... though CGT's are declining in numbers. I've just heard from a friend that his friend was recently killed driving a CGT. The accident also involved a Koenigsegg and reputedly happened at over 180mph. :(

That's some serious shit :|

crayzayjay 04-04-2005 09:30 AM

Yep. You wouldn't believe the circumstances if i told you... I can't really say anything online but hit me up with a PM if you want to know more.

I really doubt Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can kill you. :lol:



About the Jag...I kind of like it but, realistically, it's just a straight-line rocket that is in need of a parachute.

Joking about dead people... :roll:

Mers 04-04-2005 05:35 PM

went there to see it too...here's the story on the car:

it belonged to this guy, who lives in interior of brazil, mato grosso....he couldn't sell the car here in sao paulo, 3 years ago, in the ferrari store....then, he tried to sell it last year, unsuccessfully, in another store, now he's trying the third one....he won't sell it....he's asking for too much....

There's only two of them here, one belongs to this guy, the other (which i've seen) belongs to a guy who owns a GT40, an aston martin v8 vantafe, a diablo, an EB110, a lister storm, and a CLKGTR, among others..... it's beautifull

Mers 04-04-2005 05:42 PM

They ask for 1 million reais...which adds up to be 300K dollars....but now it seems they've changed the price

gbg 04-04-2005 10:15 PM

^^ I heard another history concerning this Jag... a friend told me that it belongs to the Diniz family, and that they were asking 400 k dollars, a bit more than 1 million reais (using the 2,65 currency for today)

but he too told me that the car is being sold for a looong time

ouch! and how the hell I only see it now? :lol:

I hope this baby stay on the store until at least the next time I go to SP... :twisted:

DeMoN 04-05-2005 12:37 AM

I went to Brazil a long time ago, but there is one thing that I cant forget... that was my father buying a pizza and having it stolen on the way to the apartment. When he came back, empty handed, he told us the story. I wonder how cars like that last longer than 1 week on the street.

mclaren_Gt 04-05-2005 01:06 AM

very nice, car, the colour not bad, but im prefer it in silver

but only one thing, WTF with that rims ???
lol are so fucking ugly
my question is, what is the price of a jaguar xj220 brandnew?

700k is ridiculous?

i think this car is over that range of prices, but is sad becoss the people only pay 200k, for one car like this

this is one of the best s, ever maided, for me =)

DeMoN 04-05-2005 04:59 AM

maybe the original rims were stolen LOL!

crayzayjay 04-05-2005 05:02 AM

The rims aren't great. But neither were the originals imo:

what city do you live?

the owner of the jag seems to be going through a hard time trying to sell it... there aren't much lucky guys with one million in the pocket to spend in a 10-year-old car :lol:
