This might be the best used-car deal out there today. The Mk1 Jaguar XF (X250) debuted back in 2008 with a price tag of RM488,888. Today - twelve years later - it's worth about RM40,000, roughly the same price as a brand new Proton Saga. But is the price tag an honest reflection of the famed British build quality, or is it simply an unfortunate case of over-depreciation? In this episode, Richard, Daniel and Ariff discusses this and more.
