I had 3 XJSs. Drove them a combined 100K without a repair, while my friends’ Porsches, BMWs, and Mercedes lived in the shop. Love Jaguar. My only Porsche was a daily nightmare.
My German teacher in college owned a BMW. One day he was telling us what a great car it was and how reliable.
After I left class, I happened to see him in the parking lot trying to do something to his windshield wiper. It was raining. He saw me and just said “wouldn’t you know it”.
