New or Second hand 156?
I'm in the process of looking for a replacement for a very high milage
VW Scirocco, and finding that there are so few cars around with any semblance of style (and that I can afford), that the 156 and the Jag X-type, have come up as the only options. One of the most important criteria is fuel consumption. I do 20k a year, so the 2.4 JTD is top of the list. The question is whether to go new (I actually like the new 156 shape, although, I might be in the minority here...) or get a two year oldish 156 for significantly less money. The only things that concern me are reliability and servicing costs. The new 156 doesn't compete with the unlimited miles jag warranty, and up to 6 years cover, but then a second hand 156 with 12 months cover, is definitely more pocket friendly. Is it going to get me through a 100k miles without too much trouble? PyroJames Where I like, when I like, in whatever I like to wear. |
