Oh well indeed. I bet England didn't expect to come out of Europe twice in one week. :-)

10/10 for that.

What has the eu got to do with us buying crude oil we don't buy it off the eu don't believe all the b****hit that they are trying to scare you with

You, sir, do not understand economics.

Dont worry we can all drive round in caterams and morgans. We have a fantastic car industry that caters for everyone. In all seriousness i would not see any significan rise till after artical 50 is invoked, even then it may take a whole term to see any significant price increase. Basicaly when the uk actualy have a plan in place.

Except an XE isn't that much more than an Octy,

 

Define 'much'.  The list price of my car is around £21k once you've added metallic paint and a spare wheel. It's no sports car, but it's plenty quick enough for me, and has all the kit that I need (primarily what I want is cruise control and a DAB radio, and I like an auto-dipping rearview mirror and a centre front armrest, but the rest is fluff).

 

The cheapest XE lists at £27k.

Now consider that online brokers offer 10% off a jag and 18% off my car (at least that's what it was when I was buying).

Now consider that a 1yr old jag with 15k miles on the clock is still only 10% off list, and my car at the same age is 30% off list.

 

The XE is also more expensive to own and run in every way.

 

By my reckoning sterling would have to halve in value before an XE is comparable financially, although I will grant you that it would be a nicer place to sit and I wouldn't at all mind having one! And, being serious for just one minute, a car assembled in this country has many components that are imported anyway, so the chances are that the price of a british built car would be under pressure as well (although to a lesser degree).
