Thoughts on this Jaguar?

Hi looking at purchasing a used 2016 2.0 manual jaguar xf prestige. I noted in the glove box an invoice for fly wheel replacement in 2017. Car has only done 15500 miles but the gear stick appears juddery/vibrating alot when engine kicks in. Is this a sign of an underlying issue?. Car still has 12 months manufacturers warranty but wouldn't want to purchase something so expensive too have issues that need addressing from the off.

Our answer:

Hi Nick,

Definitely worth staying away from. Not only for the potential issue with the flywheel, but also because of the lack of popularity of manual versions of prestige cars such as this. It would prove to be difficult to sell on.
