I spent over $700 to have a problem with my car fixed. Tonight it appears that problem wasn't fixed.:(

I looked to see if I could use Cash for Clunkers to get rid of it. They'll take 1999 but not a 2000. Missed it by a year.
Is it car break-down months or what?

My car had a problem with a starter for the engine, and a problem with the coolant or rather the cylinder-head gasket.

My colleagues Jaguar also broke down - gearbox damage, costs around 2,000 to 5,600 €.
 

What was or is wrong with it?
It tries to stall on me. It'll shut down if I don't keep the gas flowing it seems. When it happens all the electrical stuff will flicker as if the car shut off and restarted. If I happen to be sitting idle the car will shut off.

I have no sympathy for a person that can afford a Jag.:p That's not true. 2-5k euros? How much is that in real money?lol

2-5k €uros is real money. In American Pe$os, it's around 2'800 to 7'100. (according to google and rounding for nicer numbers).

He is making the same amount of money as I am, he just spend it differently, I suppose. ;) And he had a girlfriend and now wife that earns even a little more.
It's a used car. A quick google search reveals a used X-Type can be bought starting at 5'000 € (7'100 €). Frack, that's basically the same cost as to repair it! (Though more realistic offers in the region seem to double or triple that number...)

X-Type Jag is basically a tarted up Ford Mondeo.

The new Jags, like the XF, XR and XJ are really nice. The X-Type... not so much...
