I’ve made switch

Howdy everyone. I’ve made the jump from Kinja. I’ve been looking at this 2000 Jag XJ8 for my wife’s DD. It’s a horrible idea, but just so Oppo it hurts.

That is a horrible thing to do to a spouse.

But it will entertain us, so do it.

@chariotoflove oh it’s a really bad idea. A 2000 XJ with 57,000 miles, supposedly for less than $5,000. I can’t imagine it to be less than a money pit but damn it looks really nice on the Craig list.

I can't think of a less straightforward way of saying "Honey, I'd like a divorce."

[DealkillerPoweredByFocus]

@jordan yep

[Jordan]

@dealkillerpoweredbyscotch Alternatively it says: "Honey, we should go to a key party."

[ClassicDatsunDebate]

@jordan yes, let someone else deal with the inevitable jump start...lol

Honestly, I looked at these as a DD a few years back. I know, that says something about my judgement, but damn I’ve always wanted one.

They are very pretty cars....but I think I'd pull my hair out if I owned one. Your wife may do the same....do you have extra money for a wig budget?

I guess the question comes to how obsessed is she about everything working. As long as the HVAC, safety gear, drivetrain and radio works, who cares if there is electrical tape over the check engine light or the seat adjuster doesn't run. $5k isn't a lot of downside as long as she isn't a perfectionist. Tell us more.....
