bmw vs. benz vs. jag

[mjb25]

please help...say for instance you have 1.5-1.7 budget and this can get you either of the following :

2001-2002 benz c-class
2003-2004 318i msport
2002-2003 jag x-type

which would you buy? thanks!

i prefer the jaguar.pero ganon lang ba price range?

[Dr.Kamiya]

i'd have the c-class. the bmw 3 series is so common now, and the jag at that price level is just a glorified mondeo.

Bmw ako. Parts availablity for benz and BMW is ok. Madami na available sa mga auto supplies. But I choose BMW because mas marami ang reliability issues ng Benz. Problem with Jaguar is parts availability.

If you need parts for BMW and Benz just PM me or txt me at 09177448113.

Thanks.

The Jaguar X-Type is just a glorified Ford Mondeo. Sure, it's plusher than the Mondeo, but in that price range, you can buy a brand new Mazda6 or Accord that drives just as nicely and is almost as nice inside.

It's either C-class or 3-series, for me... if I'm choosing between these three, but at 1.7 million, there's a lot of other things you can buy.

If the C-Class says "Kidnap me, I'm loaded", the X-Type screams it to high heavens.

I'd go for the Bimmer.

[Horsepower]

have you considered an Audi A6?

[empy]

i am also not impressed with the x-type. not because of any contour/mondeo snobbery , but because i simply don't see the build quality and materials as being worthy of the Jaguar name

also not a big fan of the 318i m-sport. bmw four-bangers are notoriously underpowered, and i think they charged way too much for the m-technic cosmetic parts when they sold the m-sport versions.

so i guess that leaves the C-class. are we talking at least about a C220 or C280 here?

Initially I was attracted by the jag but the novelty of having a "rare" car will quickly wear off after a few months of owning one.

Given that, I would either go for the benz or bmw. If you are going to drive the car, get the bmw. If you will be driven, get the benz.

Exclusivity - jag
Comfort - Merc
Sporty - BMW
It all comes to what type of person you are.
For me, it's C-class, 203 chassis nito. Kasi "COMFORT MODE" ang driving habits ko, especially kung kasama si Wifey and the kids, sila yung auxilliary brakes ko when I'm beginning to drive sporty, may vocal high speed alarm ika nga.
For 1.7M, sobra na yan for the selected year models.

i guess i'd have to eliminate the jag then...
what if i intend to use the car as my daily service (commonly, bahay-school-bahay)?

i'm currently using an suv and i wanna get back to a european sedan sana for my next change..

thanks!
