Is a Jaguar right for me? My wife has back problems and is reluctant to travel more than a few miles in my 2002 Peugeot 307 XSI, which she finds too firm. Every bump and ridge seems to affect her, so she's asked me to buy something "larger, older and softer." No car can do much for her condition, but an older saloon (all we could afford) might enable us to enjoy some days out together. There are hundreds of middle-aged Jaguars for £900-£2,500, but I don't know which are softly sprung or which might potentially be problematic. Any tips? My friendly local dealer has suggested he might be able to arrange a straight swap for my 49,000-mile Peugeot if I accept something older. I'm not sure that an old Jag will be the best answer. You need soft suspension, fat tyres, comfortable seats and easy cabin access. An MPV might suit her better (a Toyota Previa, for instance).
