Really, I would of thought the Audi's would be the less reliable, although I do remember some people in work saying they never had issue's with them and don't know any jaguar owners's, but assumed since it's jaguar they would have decent reliability.

I noticed looking more closely at the pics of the a5 that some of the knobs are missing on dials around the gear stick, so not sure what that says about the previous owner.

I suppose I'm leaning more towards the A6 now since the jaguar needs a new timing belt and he will take that off the price. I'd rather not have to deal with that.
