This will be a thread where you could ask any questions and people will try to answer

Q: My aunt is buying a Jaguar, the 2012 is a 5 liter and 2013 is a supercharged 3 liter. The difference of hp is 45 but the three liter saves more gas. The Jaguar dealer is selling the 5 liter for 8k cheaper though so which one should she get?

I think that in this economy, you need better gas mileage than you do horsepower. I would go with the 3 liter, even though it is more expensive. The 8k she saves will probably go towards gas lol. That's me though. If gas wasn't a million dollars per gallon, I'd say get the 5 liter.

Depends on how much your aunt drives.
If she goes for the occasional drive I'd say the 5, if she wants to use it as a daily driver for work etc I'd say the 3.
It all depends on your country's insurance and taxes though, here in the Netherlands the 5 would be way more expensive than the 3. You'd probably save the 8k in less than two years if you drive regularly.

If it's only a weekend machine I'd say the 5.

I always see people with these big 90litre cars and my mates laugh and say, "how can they afford to run it?!"

Fact is, if you can afford to buy it you can afford to run it too.
