So basically my insurance is up for renewal soon and I've been thinking about changing my car. The only car I would change it for is my old man's jag xtype as he is willing to do a trade so my mum can have my fiesta but I'm in two minds whether to do it or not, what do you guys think ? And the xtype is basically a mondeo so I'd really still have a ford haha

What year is the x type?

59 plate the facelift

Engine and gearbox?

Might be a bit of a change come parking to the fiesta, lol.

Haha its got parking sensors so it's not bad I've drove it a few times haha and it's the 2 litre 5 speed not the 2.2 6 speed unfortunately haha

I got an insurance quote on it this morning and it's not much of a differnce for my next policy

Not really my cup of tea. Do you like the way it drives?

It is a bit old Manish that's my only issue but the way it drives is lovely

But is it lovely like arm chair and slippers or lovely like can have some fun in it?

Depends what you want from your car... I like fun and engaging personally.

Not so fun round the corners compared to the fiesta but top end it's brilliant and it always pulls like a train and it's a lot faster off the line compared to what people think

Is it the same engine as the Mondeo so the 2.0 Psa?

Good engine if it is, I had one in my old focus. Does pull hard.

I belive it is as I never call it a jag it's always called a mondeo haha

It'll be a Ford/PSA unit. All JLR Diesels have been until the last few months.

Sounds nice enough, a 59 is one of the very last ones.
