First thing that comes to mind is that parts would more than likely be freakishly expensive and quite possibly hard to find.

RUN.

When I hear Jag = Fire. I cannot tell you how many burnt Jags I have seen in the junkyards, new and old. Apparently their fuel or electrical systems suck ***.

Personally, I love Jags. I had a girlfriend whose dad would let us use his occasionally. But, I have no clue on reliability. Just expect maintenance and parts to be expensive...
