If you were looking at the 95K model it was probably the portfolio model. You can find 06 and 07's for well under 40K and with minimal mileage. The difference between the portfolio and regular models is minimal and the extra cost is questionable. Differences include rear hvac controls able to adjust temperature, rear dvd system. Rear shades, a richer leather for seats, leather found in regular model is terrific though. Portfolio also has a 390 hp engine. However, 290 easily propels the car.

Two Years Old Should be Under $30K by lzolidis

Depreciation is pretty steep for the first two years on new Jaguars. I bought my beautiful 2000 XJ8 when it was three years old with 45,000 miles for $20,000, cheaper than a new Honda Civic Hybrid at the time. Others one year newer were about $25,000 - $28,000. I think the prices are still pretty close to those levels at the place I used, which sells exclusively Jaguar-owned cars that were lease cars. It's called Texas Cars Direct in Dallas, and has a web site where you can check prices and inventory. It might be worth checking.

My 2000 XJ8 seems to love sucking up antennae lube...
The suspension creaks a bit too much even after proper lubing...
Had to replace my trans, but since I paid $9000. for the car last july with 64,000 on it, I'm still ahead...and god, that titanium color, the gals love it. (nightime lighting with a good wax job doesn't hurt either) Put twenty thousand miles in one year just goofing around on it. Having the bumper replaced from minor damage, as the body shops say it's the way to go, then gotta find some kind of bumper guards, as I can't stand watching the paint get chipped....
Love having a black interior with the wood...
