Not if my past experience is any guide. This one should hold up quite a long time without any need for repairs. Japanese electrics and engine controls, not Lucas or Ford.

Who sourced the electrics on the 95 XJR - Mazda? I’m somewhat familiar with this era Jaguar, primarily through friends in the local British car club. And I rented a later-model for a week for my honeymoon in 2002. However, ... the supercharger is a potential problem area - it should be serviced frequently. Also, there were some common electrical glitches (fuel gauge, oil light, rear window brake light), but I agree it’s nothing like the Lucas-era meltdowns.

I love the XJ/XJR exterior styling and the R’s power. But, the handling is a bit too ponderous for me, the interior feels cramped (and I’m not a very big/tall guy), and the instrument layout is awkward to say the least. Good luck with it, and report back in a couple of years!
