I have a 2014 XJ 3.0 AWD, these cars are sooo underated.

I was looking at using the engine into my Toyota Coaster bus hauling 23 passengers. I'm sure it would happily go uphill with a full load. Original engine is 1HD-FTE 4,2 Toyota 6 online turbo diesel.

Love the e30 so much i got 2 of them lol

Looks like a Ford Fusion Sport lol

You/Driver looks like a guy from The Expanse. Stay awesome!

thank you for you review as im looking at buying to car

Its a great machine. If you have a family its a no brainer.

I have a 640 convertible and it is fantastic

😊🎉

Of course, there is nothing more nerve-wrecking than a badly maintained (trashy) Silver Shadow, so I agree with you in this point. I drive a Shadow since 2012 - and never had problems with the rat trap (no leaks, no brake problems etc), just to mention your example. The three "failures to proceed" in those twelve years were caused entirely by my own faults ( bad soldering / old petrol / not on starter solenoid not fastened properly) .- that's it. I am sorry to say that the Shadow (at least) is not constructed to be converted into a Rallye car.

You are a 100% certified idiot!!!!😕

That is so interesting thankyou.

We once had a neighbor who owned a Silver Shadow. Every time he wanted to drive it he had to have his wife follow in their daily driver because he would break down 95% of the time. Cured my RR fever for good!

I feel bad for that car. A true masochist‘s project.

I told you so 🤣

Be glad you guys don't have this Indian shitbox

Brilliant and enjoyed this refreshingly truthfully detailed unbiased review and very well done! I purchased my 55 in 2010 with 27k being just 5 years old with 4 previous owners ! I was somewhat hesitant in the purchase however being a main dealer Mercedes of Bath I went ahead and with confidence. After 15 years of ownership with 41k I’ve had many criticisms of the “Hairdressers car” comment, generally these comments come from someone who’s never driven one of couldn’t afford one. I have been tempted to sell the car but never had the guts as know I will regret it. My brother has a TVR but he never uses it for power but just sound. Items attended to in 15 years of ownership. 1 x Radiator Fan replacement 2 x rear tyres 1 x window washer pump 2 x Rocker Cover Gaskets. Roof mechanism micro switches required a drop of WD40 that I did myself, most comments were that it will be a very expensive repair job. Always do your own research!! All in all it’s been a very affordable car to run, I drive it only when I want to and that’s when it’s dry. I have kept mine as factory had the wheels refurbished and doors re sprayed as the leading edge had chipped from previous owners that I didn’t spot when buying. The car is in fantastic condition and garaged. I Still enjoy the driving just as must as I did in 2010. As the R171 55 is a less common sight these days it now is a talking point with appreciation.

Is it in Australia

I got mine in December 2018 and I'm looking forward to some more years of fun with the Jaguar I-PACE. Ian Callum designed it and the drive train called eDrive was developed by Magnum Steyr in Graz, Austria where the car is manufactured. This company is working on the next generation of this EV platform and will most likely also build the next generation EV's for Jaguar.

Great video

I bought one seven years ago...saw it one the way back from grabbing my kid from the kindergarten...did a U-turn and grabbed it up ...I cannot recommend it though... sorry ( it is just too we easy to reach 150 kph on highways...you greenhorn puppies gonna die out there with that supreme machine...and you won't deserve it none either..ha

I can’t drive anything else other than automatic because I’m disabled. So this is interesting, just seen one for sale on eBay! White 43,000 miles £17,995. Is that a fair price?

Consumption ?

The frist XJ which looked really cheap

Bought a 2015 MSport 640D recently. Agree its a brilliant car - huge amount of car for the money. Though the 60mpg you talk about is never going to happen. I'm getting 42mpg , still great for a 3 lite 6 cylinder beast! I'm 6'4" tall so zero leg room in the rear seat behind me. One thing I've noticed is it's an insanely long car..almost 5 metres, so it is pretty much as long as a UK car parking bay, be prepared to stick out a bit! The sound in Sports mode is great. I was pleasantly surprised by the ride quality on 20inch wheels...ditch the RFs tyres btw. Road tax is now £210.

One of the best open and honest reviews I have seen on this car. I absolutely love the R171 SLK55, and after having my previous 07 R171 SLK55 totaled in a head-on collision, I'm having a hard time finding another car that is anywhere near comparable to what this offers. More than likely I will get into another one. Just no comparison to anything else out there! - 2+2 with hardtop convertible - lightweight & physically small - EXCELLENT and super reliable + easy to work on M113 V8 - Great MPG for all that power potential under the hood - The list goes on....

Amazing design design on the R171, true enough. I have the smaller engined SLK R171 in a super charged non AMG derivative, and it does me just fine. With top end around 150MPH and 0-60MPH in under 7 secs. Yes, I know, these are still fast cars. It handles adequately and is really quick enough! BUT the the 55AMG is the penultimate in my book for a cost effective demi super car experience! I have considered a Boxster S or Cayman. However the 55AMG and the 'apparent' practical running costs might be a future option - as the 'extra' vehicle for me. There's other vehicular responsibilities to family relatives needing MY additional Audi 'Q' SVU at the moment. SO, it is a case of:- if / when I decide to graduate from my beloved (standard) R171 SLK. This ultra reliable & economical SLK, I have had for many years, what a car it is. Thought I would share before I make the leap to a retro 55AMG or Boxster / Cayman. This is a dilemma indeed, I have had for a few months now. . . Either a Porsche or another Merc SLK (as I have had 6 'contigual' Merc cars over the past 25 years.) No better than the devil you know, one might say? ? ? A battle of the Germans within my head! Please know I've worked very hard in life to earn my guilty pleasures over the past 30 years! Any first hand Porsche 'experiental' info would be much appreciated. Many thanks. . . Dr. Rob.

I’m 6.4 , buy a sunroof delete and your fine

I have always had a love affair with AM. It has always been the dream. Never did I consider that actually getting one for sub 40k, I can actually do this. And with young kids, this just makes sense! Super dad car! Just need to watch 100 videos on how to buy a 10 year old super car and what costs I might need to prepare for!!

I had a DB9 2005 for 5 years, loved it. But now I have a Rapide 2011 and like it better. Better ground clearance, bit more driver space and rear seats that are useful though a tight fit. Just enough to pick friends for dinner and short day trips. It is a gorgeous car that people love. Overall performance is about the same as a DB9. Aston only built 4979 Rapides but it shares so many parts with the DB9 that parts will not be an issue. I agree the Rapide is a fantastic car at a good price point currently. I think as the years go by it will hold a fair value and be somewhat collectible.

Hahahaha i am so going to buy a touareg v10

Another Great video, completely agree with you on the column shift gearbox, My 2015 Mercedes ML W166 as the gears in the same position & every car should have it

The front grill area is just sexy.............still with classic looks !!!

What’s the engine sound like ? Seems pretty quiet in this video.

Do you rate their reliability

Picked up a 15 Turbo which I feel is an instant classic beast🥃🏁

I had exactly the BMW 320i , 6 cylinders, 1989. It was such a nice, perfect car.

Really useful review thanks

Catching your left foot on the dash panel suggests that the panel isn’t fitted correctly or is broken, both very common.

Its better….

Lovely sounding v8 👌🏼

excellent video

only buy a 318is thats the one to have ,Ihave a E38 728I ill swap for 318is tomorrow .

Love my Gen1 turbo - proper Porsche engine, unlike the 2nd generation cars, and a solid all rounder daily. Oh, and my one has got Sports Chrono and a Pano roof, which the one in this video appears to be missing - if you're looking out for a Macan, spec is everything and the more of it the better!

thak you for the explanation og this car. i thinkink to buy this car.

What exhaust is that?

sleeka spares in Australia are absolute legends when it comes to Celica parts

I'm Aussie, and yes, the second generation Toyota Celica liftback was popular. In fact, though my budget in 1978 only stretched to a Toyota Corolla coupe (which also was pillarless), I would have loved to have a Celica liftback. My Corolla coupe was only a 1.2 litre. I would also have liked a Corolla liftback, but they were hard to get. The Toyota T-18 would have been good too (1.8 litre). Those would be very rare these days.

WOW! What a great car you've found, ive never seen one before - Many thanks for sharing ❤
