    I win. 17 year old Vauxhall Vectra with knackered paint work on the passenger side door and a driver's seat that could be used a torture device.

    I am looking at upgrading to an old Jag, either S or X type.

    Don't get the X type. It's a Mondeo.

    You could get the 'newer' XF model for a bargain.

    The X appears to suffer from rusty sills.

    Had a Y plate X-type 3.0L V6 manual for 9 years and 180k miles, loved it. Found the S-type too wallowy.

    Currently have a Focus 1.5L 150bhp in my downsized retirement, practical. Insurance renewal was up 60%! Cheapest alternative quote >50%. Mrs Lincs has a Fiesta 1.0L ecoboost, nippy enough. Fiesta being discontinued which is a shame as has been safe choice for second car for several iterations.

    Insurance.

    Just renewed mine for the Skoda.

    Was £300 last year. Quoted renewal at £500.

    Got cover for £450. No claims made...

    Robbing ****s.

    The Vectra is horrible to drive but it does at least work.

    I fancy the X type but whenever I go for a car I really fancy it tends to blow up in my face. Same with women.... better off sticking to the ugly but practical ones
