I want a holden commodore for me and maybe a ford falcon for the boss (the wife) any ideas on prices for these (not to old)???We have $20,000 to get both is this enough?

This is a little car dealer near me which may give you some idea of prices. I would imagine prices could be a little cheaper in the cities. He's not a big dealer but his cars are always better value than the other dealers in town.

Thats it give her the crappy car

Bloody right i had a loverly Xtype jag and she made me sell it for a bigger car (Grand jerokee pile of shit)It had everything in it like TV'S dvd player etc etc but it spent more time in the garage being fixed so it is pay back time

Why don't you go for something with a bit of character? both of those cars are as boring as bat shit :-)

How did you find the X-Type Jag?

I was on the market for a new company car and took a brand new X-type out on a test drive; it was a beautiful car but to me it just didn't feel like a Jag if that makes sense. The quality was there.......... but not the sleekness!

It didn't look like a Jag........ plus the price didn't seem right....... it was too cheap at $39,950 brand spanking new? I ended up with a 3 year old XJ-8 which cost me much more than a brand new X-Type.

With petrol being what it is in price; the good news is I find the Jag much more economical than my Holden Commodore.

Look at www.redbook.com.au should have all the price details you require

Why don't you look on the car websites

When you do buy the cars, keep away from the shonky car dealers, of which there are many. Go for ones that are accredited by the auto club in the particular state, as they at least have some crediblity. The cars at that price will either be old or have 100 000 plus kms (ex-company rep vehicles) on the odometer.

the x-type was very nice but no what you mean.Try the 3 litre sport as that is very sleek.To everyone else thanks for the replies and i will check out the sites
